When implementing an application system in a distributed computing environment, several architectural questions arise such as, how and where computing resources are distributed, a...
Redundancy is the basic technique to provide reliability in storage systems consisting of multiple components. A redundancy scheme defines how the redundant data are produced and...
Decentralized MDPs provide powerful models of interactions in multi-agent environments, but are often very difficult or even computationally infeasible to solve optimally. Here we...
