In a cooperative multi-agent system that is situated in an evolving environment, agents need to dynamically adjust their negotiation attitudes towards different agents in order to...
— In this paper, we propose a distributed power control algorithm for multihop ad hoc CDMA networks. The algorithm attempts to maximize the QoS of each user as well as a global n...
Most variational active contour models are designed to find the “desirable” local minima of data-dependent energy functionals with the hope of avoiding undesirable configurat...
Abstract. In Distributed Problem-solving (DPS) systems a group of purposefully designed computational agents interact and co-ordinate their activities so as to jointly achieve a gl...
— Rapid-deployment mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) are frequently characterized by common overarching mission objectives which make it reasonable to expect some degree of coopera...
