In this paper we consider the problem of designing load balancing protocols in distributed systems where the participants (e.g. computers, users) are capable of manipulating the l...
Abstract-- In this paper, we are interested in using largedeviations theory to characterize the asymptotic decay-rate of the queue-overflow probability for distributed wireless sch...
The last decade of basic research in the area of Description Logics (DL) has created a stable theory, efficient inference procedures, and has demonstrated a wide applicability of ...
Information systems development is regarded as a series of distributed activities aiming at allocating resources in order to promote the development and use of computer-based syst...
Abstract-- This paper introduces a novel concept from coalitional game theory which allows the dynamic formation of coalitions among wireless nodes. A simple and distributed merge ...
