+ | My PhD research focused on investigating programming language support to deal with the effects engendered by partial failures in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). In MANETs many partial failures are the result of temporary network partitions due to the intermittent connectivity of mobile devices. Some of these failures will be permanent and require application-level failure handling. However, it is impossible to distinguish a permanent from a transient failure. Leasing provides a solution to this problem based on the temporal restriction of resources. | ||

The use of weak data replication in a mobile environment ensures that there is no need to stop an ongoing application when certain data cannot be synchronized. | The use of weak data replication in a mobile environment ensures that there is no need to stop an ongoing application when certain data cannot be synchronized. | ||

- | In an Ambient Intelligent setting, various kinds of hardware are involved, each with its own characteristics. To allow abstraction over the different devices, a standard virtual machine approach is not feasible because it is not possible to abstract over all the devices at the same time. Instead, each device will require an individually adapted virtual machine. | ||
- | |||
- | This reseach proposes a new way to develop virtual machines for Ambient Intelligence. Instead of manually modifying the virtual machine for of a particular device, the virtual machine can be generated by composing reusable modules. The first step is to determine the set of modules that can be used to build a virtual machine. The next step is to find implementation and composition techniques that guarantee the correctness and efficiency of the generated virtual machine. | ||
