Collaborative Systems support user groups enabling a shared environment and informing of its state and changes through a mechanism called awareness. We believe that these changes a...
Most of the recent works on algorithmic mechanism design exploit the solution concept of dominant strategy equilibria. Such work designs a proper payment scheme so that selfish ag...
atterns specify generic relations among abstract design elements. We hypothesize that design patterns are productive units of analogical transfer in design. We describe a normativ...
The Unified Modeling Language (UML) currently proposes a mechanism to model recurrent design structures: the parameterized collaborations. The main goal of this mechanism is to mo...
Genetic algorithms (GAs) are efficient non-gradient stochastic search methods. Parallel GAs are proposed to overcome the deficiencies of sequential GAs, such as low speed and aptn...
