Abstract. Scheduling meetings is generally difficult in that it attempts to satisfy the preferences of all participants. However, all participants can agree to a schedule in which...
Distributed Constraint Optimization Problems (DCOP) have, for a long time, been considered an important research area for multi-agent systems because a vast number of realworld si...
We present a pragmatic approach using formal methods to increase the quality of distributed component based systems: Based on UML class diagrams annotated with OCL constraints, co...
In this paper we address the problem of reducing the energy consumption in distributed embedded systems associated with time-constraints and equipped with fault-tolerant technique...
Abstract--In the design of distributed quantization systems one inevitably confronts two types of constraints--those imposed by a distributed system's structure and those impo...
