An important problem in distributed systems is to detect termination of a distributed computation. A computation is said to have terminated when all processes have become passive a...
We consider distributed algorithms to optimize random access multihop wireless networks in the presence of fading. Since the associated optimization problem is neither convex nor ...
Abstract. A key problem in designing artificial neural networks for visual object recognition tasks is the proper choice of the network architecture. Evolutionary optimization met...

A general model for the coevolution of cooperating species is presented. This model is instantiated and tested in the domain of function optimization, and compared with a tradition...
We revisit the problem of designing the profit-maximizing single-item auction, solved by Myerson in his seminal paper for the case in which bidder valuations are independently dis...
