The problem of task assignment in heterogeneous computing systems has been studied for many years with many variations. We have developed a new hybrid approximation algorithm. The...
In many studies of self-organized criticality (SOC), branching processes were used to model the dynamics of the activity of the system during avalanches. This mathematical simpliï...
In this paper, we present a paradigm for coordinating multiple robots in the execution of cooperative tasks. The basic idea in the paper is to assign to each robot in the team, a ...

In this paper, we discuss semidefinite relaxation techniques for computing minimal size ellipsoids that bound the solution set of a system of uncertain linear equations. The propo...
A human performs a variety of skillful movements by adjusting dynamic characteristics of his or her musculoskeletal system according to a task involved. Such characteristics of hu...
