The secure and robust functioning of a network relies on the defect-free implementation of network applications. As network protocols have become increasingly complex, however, ha...
This paper presents the ARTS (Agent-oriented Robust Transactional System) model, which applies transaction concepts to provide agent developers with high-level support for agent s...
Abstract. Many combinatorial optimization problems can be formulated as 0/1 integer programs (0/1 IPs). The investigation of the structure of these problems raises the following ta...
