Implementation Issues on Market-Based QoS Control
In this paper, we discuss two major tradeoffs, spatial and temporal tradeoffs, that appear when applying marketbased computing to multimedia network applications. The former appea...

Resource allocation among agents with preferences induced by factored MDPs
Distributing scarce resources among agents in a way that maximizes the social welfare of the group is a computationally hard problem when the value of a resource bundle is not lin...

Task Allocation via Multi-Agent Coalition Formation: Taxonomy, Algorithms and Complexity
Coalition formation has become a key topic in multiagent research. In this paper, we propose a preliminary classification for the coalition formation problem based on three drivin...

How to calm hyperactive agents
System performance in multi-agent resource allocation systems can often improve if individual agents reduce their activity. Agents in such systems need a way to modulate their ind...

Combinatorial resource scheduling for multiagent MDPs
Optimal resource scheduling in multiagent systems is a computationally challenging task, particularly when the values of resources are not additive. We consider the combinatorial ...
