The recent apparition of mobile wireless sensor aware to their physical environment and able to process information must allow proposing applications able to take into account their physical context and to react according to the changes of the environment. It suppose to design applications integrating both software and hardware components able to communicate. Applications must use context infor...

GNUnet is an alternative network stack for building secure, decentralized and privacy-preserving distributed applications. Our goal is to replace the old insecure Internet protocol stack. Starting from an application for secure publication of files, it has grown to include all kinds of basic protocol components and applications towards the creation of a GNU internet. This habilitation provides ...

Distributed, cooperating software agents are useful in many problem domains, such as task automation and work coordination in process-centred environments. We describe a visual language for specifying such software agents, which uses the composition of event-based software components. These specifications may contain interfaces to remotely executing agents, and agents may be run locally or on d...

Abstract In this paper we present a brain-inspired cognitive architecture that incorporates sensory processing, classification, contextual prediction, and emotional tagging. The is implemented as three modular web-servers, meaning it can be deployed centrally or across network for servers. experiments reveal two distinct operations of behaviour, namely high- low-salience modes operations, which...
