Agents can personalize otherwise impersonal computational systems. The World Wide Web presents the same appearance to every user regardless of that user’s past activity. Web Bro...
This paper proposes an efficient algorithm that produces near-optimal discrete bit-loading for a Gaussian interference channel that models a DSL network. It first takes a continuou...
Deciding what to sense is a crucial task, made harder by dependencies and by a nonadditive utility function. We develop approximation algorithms for selecting an optimal set of me...
: Software evolves as requirements or technologies change. Tremendous efforts are often needed to support software evolution as evolution may involve reverse engineering and subseq...

Motivated by the need to reason about utilities, and inspired by the success of bayesian networks in representing and reasoning about probabilities, we introduce the notion of uti...
