We find the number of partitions of n whose BG-rank is j, in terms of pp(n), the number of pairs of partitions whose total number of cells is n, giving both bijective and generati...
The purpose is to explore how norm-governed behavior within agent societies can be achieved in the context of Virtual Enterprises. We analyze a number of formal models from the age...
— As the size of the modules in a self-reconfiguring modular robotic system shrinks and the number of modules increases, the flexibility of the system as a whole increases. In ...

In this paper we present a novel performance analysis technique for large-scale systems modelled in the stochastic process algebra PEPA. In contrast to the well-known approach of ...
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) overlay network aims to be a feasible platform for building federated but autonomous digital libraries. However, due to a plethora number of P2P infrastructures ...
