When agents need to interact in order to solve some (possibly common) problem, resolving potential conflicts beforehand is often preferred to coordination during execution. Agents...
We introduce a novel case study in which a group of miniaturized robots screen an environment for undesirable agents, and destroy them. Because miniaturized robots are usually end...
In this paper we present a simple and general new No Free Lunch-like result that applies to revisiting algorithms searching arbitrary problem sets. We begin by unifying the assumpt...
Automated extraction of structured data from Web sources often leads to large heterogeneous knowledge bases (KB), with data and schema items numbering in the hundreds of thousands...
Background: Traditional HTML interfaces for input to and output from Bioinformatics analysis on the Web are highly variable in style, content and data formats. Combining multiple ...
