In the past few years, Multiagent Systems (MAS) has emerged as an active subfield of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Because of the inherent complexity of MAS, there is much inter...
Since wireless signals propagate through the ether, they are significantly affected by attenuation, fading, multipath, and interference. As a result, it is difficult to measure ...
High contention of flows is associated with unstable network behavior and unmanageable resource administration, i.e., convergence to equilibrium becomes a difficult task. In this ...
Market-based mechanisms can be used to coordinate self-interested multi-robot systems in fully distributed environments, where by self-interested we mean that each robot agent att...
The fully informed particle swarm optimization algorithm (FIPS) is very sensitive to changes in the population topology. The velocity update rule used in FIPS considers all the ne...
