With the goal to generate more scalable algorithms with higher efficiency and fewer open parameters, reinforcement learning (RL) has recently moved towards combining classical tec...
Recently a new generation of virtual worlds has emerged in which users are provided with open-ended modelling tools with which they can create and modify world content. The result...
In this paper, we propose and develop a novel approach to the problem of optimally managing the tax, and more generally debt, collections processes at financial institutions. Our...

In this paper we describe Maestro, a dataflow computation framework for Ibis, our Java-based grid middleware. The novelty of Maestro is that it is a self-organizing peer-to-peer s...
Decentralized Markov decision processes are frequently used to model cooperative multi-agent systems. In this paper, we identify a subclass of general DEC-MDPs that features regul...
