Undominated VCG redistribution mechanisms
Many important problems in multiagent systems can be seen as resource allocation problems. For such problems, the well-known Vickrey-Clarke-Groves (VCG) mechanism is efficient, in...

Analysis of the Increase/Decrease Algorithms for Congestion Avoidance in Computer Networks
Congestion avoidance mechanisms allow a network to operate in the optimal region of low delay and high throughput, thereby, preventing the network from becoming congested. This is ...
