We demonstrate a system designed to assist a visually impaired individual while moving in an unfamiliar environment. Small and economical color markers are placed in key locations...
Effective task scheduling and deployment is hard to achieve in a Grid environment, where computing resources are heterogamous and shared between local and Grid users without a cen...
Two important performance metrics in collaborative systems are local and remote response times. Previous analytical and simulation work has shown that these response times depend ...
Auctions are promising decentralized methods for teams of agents to allocate and re-allocate tasks among themselves in dynamic, partially known and time-constrained domains with p...
A collaborative system must perform both processing and transmission tasks. We present a policy for scheduling these tasks on a single core that is inspired by studies of human pe...
