Increasingly, commercial content providers (CPs) offer streaming and IPTV solutions that leverage an underlying peerto-peer (P2P) stream distribution architecture. The use of P2P...
This paper addresses the problem of scheduling jobs in soft real-time systems, where the utility of completing each job decreases over time. We present a utility-based framework fo...
In this work we extend the work of Dean, Kaelbling, Kirman and Nicholson on planning under time constraints in stochastic domains to handle more complicated scheduling problems. I...
Decentralized MDPs provide powerful models of interactions in multi-agent environments, but are often very difficult or even computationally infeasible to solve optimally. Here we...
This paper outlines a multi-agent architecture for regulated information exchange of crime investigation data between police forces. Interactions between police officers about info...
