Abstract. Software agent technology has attracted much attention for developing various distributed systems, composed of autonomous agents interacting with one another using partic...
Virtualization provides a vehicle to manage the available resources and enhance their utilization in network computing. System dynamics requires virtual machines be distributed an...
In this paper, we present an efficient procedure for building a piecewise linear function approximation of the speed function of a processor with hierarchical memory structure. Th...
In this paper we develop a novel probabilistic model of computational trust that allows agents to exchange and combine reputation reports over heterogeneous, correlated multi-dime...

As the "system-on-a-chip" concept is rapidly becoming a reality, time-to-market and product complexity push the reuse of complex macromodules. Circuits combining a varie...
