This paper recognises that comparisons have been made between the role of the conductor of an orchestra and leaders of enterprises, but that little note has been taken of how the c...
We consider the problem of rate-distortion optimal streaming of packetized media with sender-driven transmission over a single-QoS network using feedback and retransmissions. For ...
Many large scale systems, like grids and structured peer to peer systems, operate on a constrained topology. Since underlying networks do not expose the real topology to the appli...
The evolution of music, from random note strings to certain “pleasant” note sequences, is traced in a multi-agent computational model. A community of agents, with some musical ...
Due to the restriction of SIMD mode to local operations in VLSI massively parallel vision chips, using programmable connections and asynchronous communications are key ingredients ...
