KLAIM is an experimental language designed for modeling and programming distributed systems composed of mobile components where distribution awareness and dynamic system architect...
Many multi-agent systems consist of a complex network of autonomous yet interdependent agents. Examples of such networked multi-agent systems include supply chains and sensor netw...
This article describes a mathematical framework for characterizing cooperativity in complex systems subject to evolutionary pressures. This framework uses three foundational compo...
Multi-hop ad hoc wireless networks generally use the IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) MAC protocol, which utilizes the request-to-send/clear-to-send (RTS/CTS) me...
Abstract— There is widespread agreement that a higher level programming model for sensor networks is needed. A variety of models have been developed, but the community is far fro...
