Consistency techniques are an e cient way of tackling constraint satisfaction problems (CSP). In particular, various arc-consistency algorithms have been designed such as the time...
We present a hierarchical distributed communication and control architecture for Smart Grids. The proposed topology consists of multiple layers to allow for robust and flexible d...
This paper addresses design exploration for protocols that are employed in systems with availability-consistency tradeoffs. Distributed data is modelled as states of objects repl...
Asynchronous Partial Overlay (APO) is a search algorithm that uses cooperative mediation to solve Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problems (DisCSPs). The algorithm partitions ...
The paper considers distributed applications where interactions between constituent services take place via messages in an asynchronous environment with unpredictable communicatio...
