Multi-agent systems are prone to failures typical of any distributed system. Agents and resources may become unavailable due to machine crashes, communication breakdowns, process ...
We consider spatial databases that can be defined in terms of polynomial inequalities, and we are interested in monotonic transformations of spatial databases. We investigate a hi...
IP problems characterise combinatorial optimisation problems where conventional numerical methods based on the hill-climbing technique can not be directly applied. Conventional me...
We give a framework for denotational semantics for the polymorphic “core” of the programming language ML. This framework requires no more semantic material than what is needed...
—The emergence of multi-core computers has led to explosive development of parallel applications and hence the need of efficient schedulers for parallel jobs. Adaptive online sc...
