Internet overlay services must adapt to the substrate network topology and link properties to achieve high performance. A common overlay structure management layer is desirable fo...
The perception of transparent objects from images is known to be a very hard problem in vision. Given a single image, it is difficult to even detect the presence of transparent o...
We study the design of truthful mechanisms that do not use payments for the generalized assignment problem (GAP) and its variants. An instance of the GAP consists of a bipartite g...
Multi-Agent Systems are a promising way of dealing with large complex problems. However, it is not yet clear just how much complexity or pre-existing structure individual agents m...
This paper looks upon the standard genetic algorithm as an artificial self-organizing process. With the purpose to provide concepts that make the algorithm more open for scalabili...
