Decentralized Markov decision processes are frequently used to model cooperative multi-agent systems. In this paper, we identify a subclass of general DEC-MDPs that features regul...
The emerging ”Computational Grid” infrastructure poses many new opportunities for the developing science of large scale multiagent simulation. The ability to migrate agent expe...

The emerging standards for the specification of Web Services support the publication of the static interfaces of the operations they may execute. However, little attention is paid...
Abstract. We present an encoding for (bound) processes of the asynchronous CCS with replication into open Petri nets: ordinary Petri nets equipped with a distinguished set of open ...
We consider the problem of allocating networked resources in dynamic environment, such as cloud computing platforms, where providers strategically price resources to maximize thei...
