This paper addresses the problem of identifying the value of information held by a teammate on a distributed, multi-agent team. It focuses on a distributed scheduling task in whic...
We consider the online problem of scheduling jobs with equal processing times on a single machine. Each job has a release time and a deadline, and the goal is to maximize the numb...
In large storage systems, it is crucial to protect data from loss due to failures. Erasure codes lay the foundation of this protection, enabling systems to reconstruct lost data w...
The Bacterial Foraging Optimization (BFO) algorithm is a biologically inspired computation technique which is based on mimicking the foraging behavior of E.coli bacteria. This pape...
