We define the Value State Dependence Graph (VSDG). The VSDG is a form of the Value Dependence Graph (VDG) extended by the addition of state dependence edges to model sequentialise...
Multi-Agent Resource Allocation (MARA) is a field developing solutions to the problem of distributing a number of resources amongst multiple agents. This field has interdisciplina...
Multiagent distributed resource allocation requires that agents act on limited, localized information with minimum communication overhead in order to optimize the distribution of ...
This paper analyzes theoretically the exact sampling distribution of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) without any assumption imposed by all current analyses. The distribution...
A workflow consists of a collection of coordinated tasks designed to carry out a welldefined complex process, such as catalog ordering, trip planning, or a business process in an ...
