We present a new polynomial-space algorithm, called Adopt, for distributed constraint optimization (DCOP). DCOP is able to model a large class of collaboration problems in multi-a...

Despite the success of the BDI approach to agent teamwork, initial role allocation (i.e. deciding which agents to allocate to key roles in the team) and role reallocation upon fai...

In a large distributed system it is often infeasible or even impossible to perform diagnosis using a single model of the whole system. Instead, several spatially distributed local...
