The design, development, and use of complex systems models raises a unique class of challenges and potential pitfalls, many of which are commonly recurring problems. Over time, res...
Fault tolerance schemes for mobile agents to survive agent server crash failures are complex since developers normally have no control over remote agent servers. Some solutions mo...
Combining access control with weakly consistent replication presents a challenge if the resulting system is to support eventual consistency. If authorization policy can be tempora...

Fault tolerance is an important property of large-scale multiagent systems as the failure rate grows with both the number of the hosts and deployed agents, and the duration of com...
This paper presents an innovative model of a program’s internal behavior over a set of test inputs, called the probabilistic program dependence graph (PPDG), that facilitates pr...
