Current research in the area of manufacturing planning and control has moved away from traditional centralized solutions towards distributed architectures that range from hierarch...
Holonic and agent-based paradigms are very suitable in the development of distributed manufacturing control systems, taking advantage of their modularity, decentralization, and abi...
Efficient exploitation of the aggregate resources available to a researcher is a challenging and real problem. The challenge becomes all the greater when researchers who collaborat...
DHTs can locate objects in a peer-to-peer network within an efficient amount of overlay hops. Since an overlay hop is likely to consist of multiple physical hops, the ratio betwee...
Multi-agent based simulation (MABS) is a discrete event simulation technique used to study complex systems with entities having social and autonomous behavior. MABS applications a...
