Distributed mechanisms that regulate the behavior of autonomous agents in open multi-agent systems (MAS) are of high interest since we cannot employ centralized approaches relying...
The future mass deployment of pervasive and dense sensor network infrastructures calls for proper mechanisms to enable extracting general-purpose data from them at limited costs a...
Structured Peer-to-Peer systems are designed for a highly scalable, self organizing, and efficient lookup for data. The key space of the so-called Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs) ...
