Abstract. In this paper, we review methods used for macroscopic modeling and analyzing collective behavior of swarm robotic systems. Although the behavior of an individual robot in...
Information dissemination is a fundamental and frequently occuring problem in large, dynamic, distributed systems. We propose a novel approach to this problem, interest-aware info...
Abstract. Epidemic protocols have demonstrated remarkable scalability and robustness in disseminating information on internet-scale, dynamic P2P systems. However, popular instances...
In this paper, a market-based decomposition method for decomposable linear systems is developed. The solution process iterates between a master problem that solves the market-matc...
As application semantics becomes more complex and dynamic in IT systems, it is necessary to engineer the application semantics in its own lifecycle of development parallel to syste...
