We explore techniques for maintaining consistency in reasoning when employing dynamic hierarchical task decompositions. In particular, we consider the difficulty of maintaining co...
In this paper, we discuss two major tradeoffs, spatial and temporal tradeoffs, that appear when applying marketbased computing to multimedia network applications. The former appea...
Dynamic plan execution strategies allow an autonomous agent to respond to uncertainties while improving robustness and reducing the need for an overly conservative plan. Executive...
