Supporting self-management behaviour by means of component-based architectural solutions has been the focus of many current research projects. In such a context, handling unantici...
In the past decade, significant progress has been achieved in developing generic primal heuristics that made their way into commercial mixed integer programming (MIP) solver. Exte...

This paper discusses our experience in building SPIRE, an autonomic system for service provision. The architecture consists of a set of hosted Web Services subject to QoS constrain...
Abstract-- In robot deployment problems, the fundamental issue is to optimize a steady state performance measure that depends on the spatial configuration of a group of robots. For...
Network control and management techniques (e.g., dynamic path switching, on-demand bandwidth provisioning) rely on active measurements of end-to-end network status. These measureme...
