We combine mixed integer linear programming (MILP) and constraint programming (CP) to solve an important class of planning and scheduling problems. Tasks are allocated to faciliti...
Whenever rational agents form coalitions to execute tasks, doing so via a decentralized negotiation process—while more robust and democratic—may lead to a loss of efficiency ...

Self-organization of wireless sensor networks, which involves network decomposition into connected clusters, is a challenging task because of the limited bandwidth and energy reso...
Storage systems manage quotas to ensure that no one user can use more than their share of storage, and that each user gets the storage they need. This is difficult for large, dis...

We present Grouped Distributed Queues (GDQ), the first proportional share scheduler for multiprocessor systems that scales well with a large number of processors and processes. G...
