Several protocol efficiency metrics (e.g., scalability, search success rate, routing reachability and stability) depend on the capability of preserving structure even over the ch...
Distributed mechanisms that regulate the behavior of autonomous agents in open multi-agent systems (MAS) are of high interest since we cannot employ centralized approaches relying...
The emergence of computational grids has lead to an increased reliance on task schedulers that can guarantee the completion of tasks that are executed on unreliable systems. There...
