Motivated by applications in batch scheduling of jobs in manufacturing systems and distributed computing, we study two related problems. Given is a set of jobs {J1, . . . , Jn}, w...
Learning to converge to an efficient, i.e., Pareto-optimal Nash equilibrium of the repeated game is an open problem in multiagent learning. Our goal is to facilitate the learning ...
The "ZIP" adaptive trading algorithm has been demonstrated to outperform human traders in experimental studies of continuous double auction (CDA) markets. The original Z...
A new class of embedded devices is emerging that has a mixture of traditional firmware (written in C/C++) with an embedded virtual machine (e.g., Java). For these devices, the main...
Role engineering, the task of defining roles and associating permissions to them, is essential to realize the full benefits of the role-based access control paradigm. Essentially,...
