This paper presents the concept and implementation of a decentralized, server-less and peer-to-peer network for the interchange of musical control interfaces and data using the OSC protocol. Graphical control elements that form the control interface can be freely edited and exchanged to and from any device in the network, doing away with the need for a separate server or editing application. Al...

A comparison of analytical techniques and the products formed during the decomposition of biodiesel under accelerated conditions. NOTICE: this is the author's version of a work that was accepted for publication in Fuel. Changes resulting from the publishing process, such as peer review, editing, corrections, structural formatting, and other quality control mechanisms may not be reflected in thi...

publishing in peer-reviewed medical journals has seen dramatic changes in the last 2 decades. First, the introduction of the fax machine and the personal computer changed the way in which manuscripts are prepared, peer reviewed and published. In the early 1980s personal computers at CMAJ were rare, and processing manuscripts was laborious for both authors and editors — endless typing, retyping ...

{ This paper introduces a directed hypergraph model that supports (1) workkow composition and reconnguration while accessing and executing programs, data, and computing resources across the Internet, (2) synchronous and asyn-chronous peer-to-peer interaction between members of any team during workkow composition and execution, (3) synchronous and asynchronous peer-to-workkow interaction between...

Conflict-Free Replicated Data Types (CRDTs) support decentralized collaborative editing of shared data, enabling peer-to-peer sharing and flexible branching merging workflows. While there is extensive work on CRDTs for plain text, much less known about rich text with formatting. No algorithms have been published, existing open-source implementations do not always preserve user intent. In this p...

In this thesis, we address the problem of optimistic replication for collaborative text editing in Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems. This problem is challenging because of concurrent updating at multiple peers and dynamic behavior of peers. Operational transformation (OT) is a typical approach used for handling optimistic replication in the context of distributed text editing. However, most of OT sol...
