— Multi-agent coordination problems can be cast as distributed optimization tasks. Probability Collectives (PCs) are techniques that deal with such problems in discrete and conti...
The recent and unprecedented surge of public interest in peer-to-peer file sharing has led to a variety of interesting research questions. In this paper, we will address the ince...

Though recent analysis of traditional cooperative coevolutionary algorithms (CCEAs) casts doubt on their suitability for static optimization tasks, our experience is that the algo...
We propose location-mediated service coordination in ubiquitous computing. In the coordination, middle agents determine bestmatched services for a user by considering the user’s...
In this paper, we address the problem of temporal synchronization of a team of mobile agents on a set of rendezvous points defined by the nodes of a bipartite network. In particula...
