Forming effective coalitions is a major research challenge in AI and multi-agent systems (MAS). Coalition Structure Generation (CSG) involves partitioning a set of agents into coa...
In this paper, we present a novel distributed certification system in which signing a certificate needs the collaboration of a fixed ratio of the nodes, hence a varying number of n...
I n this paper, we address the problem of query processing o n distributed semi-structured data. The distributed semistructured data can be modeled as a rooted and edge-labeled gr...
paper we describe d/streams, a language-independent abstraction with a small set of simple primitives for buffered I/O on distributed data-structures. We describe the interface an...
Distributed-memory programs are often written using a global address space: any process can name any memory location on any processor. Some languages completely hide the distincti...
