We consider the problem of designing the the utility functions of the utility-maximizing agents in a multi-agent system (MAS) so that they work synergistically to maximize a globa...
Abstract. This paper aims at providing a rigorous definition of selforganization, one of the most desired properties for dynamic systems (e.g., peer-to-peer systems, sensor networ...
— This paper analyzes and designs medium access control (MAC) protocols for wireless ad-hoc networks through the network utility maximization (NUM) framework. We first reverse-e...
Mapping biology into computation has both a domain specific aspect – biological theory – and a methodological aspect – model development. Computational modelers have implici...
