Peer-to-peer (P2P) computing offers many attractive features, such as self-organization, load-balancing, availability, fault tolerance, and anonymity. However, it also faces some ...
We address the problem of navigating from an initial node to a goal node by a group of agents in an unknown physical environment. In such environments mobile agents must physicall...
Abstract. Current approaches to multi-agent interaction involve specifying protocols as sets of possible interactions, and hard-coding decision mechanisms into agent programs in or...
We present an algorithm for automatic testing of distributed programs, such as Unix processes with inter-process communication and Web services. Specifically, we assume that a prog...
We build an analytical model for an application utilizing master-slave paradigm. In the model, only three architecture parameters are used: latency, bandwidth and flop rate. Instea...
