Furthermore, it describes an application prototype using this feature for face-tracking and its extensive evaluation. The main achievement of this thesis is the development of an alternative, simple and robust basis for...

Service-oriented architectures provide high levels of inter-operability and high means of adaptability. Nevertheless, distributed service-based business processes demand for robust, flexible and - bearing scalability in mind - efficient security mechanisms. This book presents access control models and procedures for intra- and inter-organizational service...

Many languages and data structures are of a recursive nature, repeating structures as sub-structures. Arithmetic expressions, virtually all programming languages, and various XML schema definitions are well-known examples. There are several difficulties in writing software operating on such data: For instance, due to stack...
