Abstract. Model-checking alternating-time properties has recently attracted much interest in the verification of distributed protocols. While checking the validity of a specificati...
Recent work has applied game-theoretic models to real-world security problems at the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and Federal Air Marshals Service (FAMS). The analysis o...

Abstract. We introduce two min-max problems: the first problem is to minimize the supremum of finitely many rational functions over a compact basic semi-algebraic set whereas the s...

In the arena of automated negotiations we focus on the principal negotiation protocol in bilateral settings, i.e. the alternatingoffers protocol. In the scientific community it is...
