Base station location has significant impact on network lifetime performance for a sensor network. For a multihop sensor network, this problem is particular challenging as we need ...
With the growing popularity of information retrieval (IR) in distributed systems and in particular P2P Web search, a huge number of protocols and prototypes have been introduced i...

We examine issues in the design of fully dynamic information retrieval systems with support for instantaneous document insertions and deletions. We present one such system and dis...
The process of pair partnership formation is an important infrastructure for many plausible MAS applications. Each agent evaluates potential partner agents, where each potential m...
In this paper we propose a methodology to help analyse tendencies in MAS to complement those of simple inspection, Monte Carlo and syntactic proof. We suggest an architecture that ...
