Agents that must reach agreements with other agents need to reason about how their preferences, judgments, and beliefs might be aggregated with those of others by the social choic...
Software modifications are often systematic—they consist of similar, but not identical, program changes to multiple contexts. Existing tools for systematic program transformati...
Failure detectors are fundamental building blocks in distributed systems. Multi-node failure detectors, where the detector is tasked with monitoring N other nodes, play a critical...
