We consider a system with two service classes with heterogeneous traffic characteristics and Quality-of-Service requirements. The available bandwidth is shared between the two tra...
In this paper we consider the problem of sending data in real time from information sources to sets of receivers, using peer-to-peer communications. We consider several models of ...
Combinatorial auctions where agents can bid on bundles of items are desirable because they allow the agents to express complementarity and substitutability between the items. Howe...
This paper discusses a novel distributed adaptive algorithm and representation used to construct populations of adaptive Web agents. These InfoSpiders browse networked information ...
—In wireless communication systems, the signal strength/quality generally varies with the distances between transmitters and receivers. As a consequence, the throughput in the MA...
