Local monitoring is an effective mechanism for the security of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Existing schemes assume the existence of sufficient number of active nodes to carry...
—We consider a scheduling problem in which a bounded number of jobs can be processed simultaneously by a single machine. The input is a set of n jobs J = {J1, . . . , Jn}. Each j...
Generally, evolutionary algorithms require a large number of evaluations of the objective function in order to obtain a good solution. This paper presents a simple approach to sav...
This work considers the problem of designing optimal multi-agent trajectories to patrol an environment. As performance criterion for optimal patrolling we consider the worst-case t...

Ensuring truthfulness amongst self-interested agents bidding against one another in an auction can be computationally expensive when prices are determined using the Vickrey-Clarke-...
