We present a decentralized, asynchronous market protocol for allocating and scheduling tasks among agents that contend for scarce resources, constrained by a hierarchical task dep...
In this paper, we focus on mechanism design for single leader Stackelberg problems, which are a special case of hierarchical decision making problems in which a distinguished agent...
In this paper, we investigate nonuniform coverage of a planar region by a network of autonomous, mobile agents. We derive centralized nonuniform coverage control laws from uniform ...
The Network Weather Service NWS is a distributed resource monitoring and utilization prediction system, employed as an aid to scheduling jobs in a metacomputing environment 9, 1...

Distributed systems can often be modeled as a collection of distributed (system) variables whose values are constrained by a set of constraints. In distributed multi-agent systems...
