A probabilistic approach to resource allocation in distributed fusion systems
In complex multi-agent fusion systems resource conflicts are very likely to occur. We propose an algorithm that determines the optimal sensing resource to fusion task assignment,...

A Truthful Mechanism for Fair Load Balancing in Distributed Systems
In this paper we consider the problem of designing load balancing protocols in distributed systems where the participants (e.g. computers, users) are capable of manipulating the l...
