Large systems of agents deployed in a real-world environment face threats to their problem solving performance that are independent of the complexity of the problem or the charact...
In this paper, we present DeployWare to address the deployment of distributed and heterogeneous software systems on large scale infrastructures such as grids. Deployment of softwa...
Distributed simulation enables participants situated in different geographical locations to share a common virtual world, which is called a Distributed Virtual Environment (DVE). ...
As the ability to produce a large number of small, simple robotic agents improves, it becomes essential to control the behavior of these agents in such a way that the sum of their...
We study two properties of coalition formation algorithms, very important for their application in real-life scenarios: robustness and tolerance to some agent misbehaviors. The st...
