Scheduling divisible loads in distributed systems is the subject of Divisible Load Theory (DLT). In this paper we show that coalitional game theory is a natural fit for modeling ...
Relational databases have had great industrial success in computer science, their power evidenced by theoretical analysis and widespread adoption. Often, automated theorem provers...
— In this paper a novel formalism to characterize contact states between an articulated polyhedral object and a polyhedral environment for the generation of the graph of feasible...
Product Distribution (PD) theory was recently developed as a framework for analyzing and optimizing distributed systems. In this paper we demonstrate its use for adaptive distribu...
In the last few years the use of coalition formation algorithms in multi-agent systems has been proposed as a possible way of modelling autonomous agent cooperation. Game theory pr...
