A Generic Self-Repair Approach for Overlays (2008)
Barry Porter, Geoff Coulson, François Taïani
Abstract. Self-repair is a key area of functionality in overlay networks, especially as overlays become increasingly widely deployed and relied upon. Today’s common practice is for each overlay to...
Experiences with open overlays: a middleware approach to network heterogeneity (2008)
Porter, Barry, Blair, Gordon, Coulson, Geoff, Taiani, Francois
In order to provide an increasing number of functionalities and benefit from sophisticated and application-tailored services from the network, distributed applications are led to integrate an...
Middleware Support for Dynamic Reconfiguration in Sensor Networks (2008)
Paul Grace, Danny Hughes, Barry Porter, Geoff Coulson, Gordon Blair
The operational environments of sensor networks will alter over time, often due to hazardous conditions or fluctuating resource availability; however this important characteristic of sensor networks...

A Specification-to-Deployment Architecture for Overlay Networks (2008)
Stefan Behnel, Ro Buchmann, Paul Grace, Barry Porter, Geoff Coulson
Abstract. Implementing overlay software is non-trivial and time-consuming. Current projects build overlays or intermediate frameworks on top of low-level networking abstractions. This leads to far...
An Adaptable WSN-based Flood Monitoring System (2008)
Danny Hughes, Gordon Blair, Geoff Coulson, Phil Greenwood, Barry Porter, Paul Smith, ...
Abstract. Flooding is a serious and increasing problem. As a result, there is a need to deploy more sophisticated sensor networks to detect and react to flooding. This paper outlines a demonstration...

Using a Grid-Enabled Wireless Sensor Network for Flood Management (2008)
Phil Greenwood, Danny Hughes, Barry Porter, Paul Grace, Geoff Coulson, Gordon Blair, ...
Flooding is becoming an increasing problem. As a result there is a need to deploy more sophisticated sensor networks to detect and react to flooding. This paper outlines a demonstration that...
A Generic Approach to Dependability in Overlay Networks (2008)
Overlay networks are virtual communication structures that are logically “laid over ” underlying hosting networks such as the Internet. They are implemented by deploying application-level...
Open Overlay Support for the Divergent Grid (2008)
Geoff Coulson, Paul Grace, Gordon Blair, Barry Porter, Wei Cai, David Duce, ...
The divergent Grid is characterized by heterogeneity. Applications will operate across different types of end-systems (e.g. from resource light sensor motes to supercomputers) that are interconnected...
Generalised repair for overlay networks (2006)
Barry Porter, François Taïani, Geoff Coulson
We present and evaluate a generic approach to the repair of overlay networks which identifies general principles of overlay repair and embodies these as a reusable service. At the heart of our...
Dynamic reconfiguration in sensor middleware (2006)
Paul Grace, Geoff Coulson, Gordon Blair, Barry Porter, Danny Hughes
Middleware solutions for sensor networks have so far mainly focused on communication abstractions, ad-hoc message routing protocols, and power conservation techniques. We argue that customisation and...
Using Grid Technologies to Optimise a Wireless Sensor Network for Flood Management (2006)
Danny Hughes, Phil Greenwood, Barry Porter, Paul Grace, Geoff Coulson, Gordon Blair, ...
Current approaches to flood monitoring (e.g. in river valleys) involve statically deploying depth and ultrasoundbased flow sensors across flood-prone areas, and feeding the collected data off-site...
G.: Intelligent Dependability Services for Overlay Networks (2006)
Abstract. Application-level overlays have emerged as a useful means of offering network services that are not supported by the underlying physical network. Most overlays employ proprietary...

A Component-based Middleware Framework for Configurable and Reconfigurable Grid Computing. (2005)
Coulson, Geoff, Grace , Paul, Blair , Gordon, Cai , Wei, Cooper, Chris, Duce, David, ...
Significant progress has been made in the design and development of Grid middleware which, in its present form, is founded on Web services technologies. However, we argue that present-day Grid...
Deep Middleware for the Divergent Grid (2005)
Paul Grace, Geoff Coulson, Gordon S. Blair, Barry Porter
Abstract. Next-generation Grid applications will be highly heterogeneous in nature, will run on many types of computer and device, will operate within and across many heterogeneous network types, and...
A Component-based Middleware Framework for Configurable and Reconfigurable Grid Computing (2004)
Geoff Coulson Paul, Paul Grace, Gordon Blair, Wei Cai, Chris Cooper, David Duce, ...
Significant progress has been made in the design and development of Grid middleware which, in its present form, is founded on web services technologies. However, we argue that present-day Grid...
