Provision of services within a virtual framework for resource sharing across institutional boundaries has become an active research area. Many such services encode access to compu...
Decision-theoretic models have become increasingly popular as a basis for solving agent and multiagent problems, due to their ability to quantify the complex uncertainty and prefe...
Interacting agents that interleave planning and execution must reach consensus on their commitments to each other. In domains where agents have varying degrees of interaction and ...
