In distributed constraint optimization problems, dynamic programming methods have been recently proposed (e.g. DPOP). In dynamic programming many valuations are grouped together i...
In a mobile computing system, users carrying portable devices can access database services from any location without requiring a fixed position in the networking environment. Some ...
A key challenge for the successful deployment of systems consisting of multiple autonomous networked sensors is the development of decentralised mechanisms to coordinate the activ...

Peer-to-peer (P2P) computing grids consist of peer nodes that communicate directly among themselves through wide-area networks and can act as both clients and servers. These syste...
MANETs are self-organizing networks composed of mobile wireless nodes with often scarce resources. Distributed applications based on the P2P paradigm are by nature good candidates...
