Coalition formation methods allow agents to join together and are thus necessary in cases where tasks can only be performed cooperatively by groups. This is the case in the Reques...
This paper investigates a class of mobile wireless sensor networks that are unconnected most of the times; we refer to them as delay–tolerant wireless sensor networks (DTWSN). T...
Multimedia applications have unique characteristics that can be leveraged to design energy-efficient loss recovery mechanisms. Given their loss tolerance and strict timing requirem...
We analyze the performance of protocols for load balancing in distributed systems based on no-regret algorithms from online learning theory. These protocols treat load balancing a...
In this paper, we outline a framework for the development of natural language interfaces to agent systems with a focus on action representation. The architecture comprises a natur...
