cord-026550-h7360j3q	Pianini, Danilo	Time-Fluid Field-Based Coordination	2020-05-13		.txt	text/plain	6410	266	47	In practice, we assume computations are not driven by time-based rounds, but by perceivable local event triggers provided by the platform (hardware/software stack) executing the aggregate program, such as messages received, change in sensor values, and time passing by. First, the proposed model enriches the coordination abstraction of field-based coordination with the possibility to explicitly and possibly reactively program the scheduling of the coordination actions; second, it enables a functional description of causality and observability, since manipulation of the interaction frequency among single components of the coordinated system reflects in changes in how causal events are perceived, and actions are taken in response to event triggers; third, the most immediate practical implication of a time-fluid coordination when compared to a traditional time-driven approach is improved efficiency, intended as improved responsiveness with the same resource cost.	./cache/cord-026550-h7360j3q.txt	./txt/cord-026550-h7360j3q.txt
