Application autonomy can reduce interactions with users, ease the use of the system, and decrease user distraction. On the other hand, users may feel loss of control over their ap...
Context-aware applications pose new challenges, including a need for new computational models, uncertainty management, and efficient optimization under uncertainty. Uncertainty c...

— This paper presents new results on the formal design of distributed coordinating agents in a discrete-event framework. In this framework, agents are modeled to be individually ...
The mechanisms and design principles needed for achieving optimized handoff for mobile Internet services are poorly understood and need better analysis. This paper contributes to ...
This paper explores the use of discrete-event simulation for the design and control of physical protection systems for fixed-site facilities housing items of significant value. It...
