A strong direct product theorem (SDPT) states that solving n instances of a problem requires ˝.n/ times the resources for a single instance, even to achieve success probability 2 ...
The Integrated Processing and Understanding of Signals (IPUS) architecture is a general blackboard framework for structuring bidirectional interaction between front-end signal pro...
The evolution of music, from random note strings to certain “pleasant” note sequences, is traced in a multi-agent computational model. A community of agents, with some musical ...
Creating ensembles of random but "realistic" topologies for complex systems is crucial for many tasks such as benchmark generation and algorithm analysis. In general, exp...
Complex and distributed systems are more and more common. Hardware is going from strength to strength and is embedded in high performance peer-to-peer networks mostly. The task of...
