The oasis-desert transition zone (TZ) is an ecological buffer between a mobile desert and oasis, which are important in reducing the forward mobility of sand dunes wind hazards oasis. In this study, Dunhuang Oasis its TZ Hexi Corridor (China) were examined. Based on annual normalized vegetation index (NDVI) at each distance from 1987 to 2015, combing watershed hydrology, oasis crop cultivation ...

NOMADS is a mobile agent system that supports strong mobility (i.e., the ability to capture and transfer the full execution state of mobile agents) and safe Java agent execution (i.e., the ability to control resources consumed by agents, facilitating guarantees of quality of service while protecting against denial of service attacks). The NOMADS environment is composed of two parts: an agent ex...

Much recent work in SOA has concentrated on documenting reference architectures. In this paper we present on-going work on the establishment of such an architecture within the OASIS SEE TC, detailing how the benefits of semantic Web services can be applied to SOA and the role of semantic execution environments, such as the IRS and WSMX. Zusammenfassung Viel Arbeit im Bereich SOA hat sich in let...
