Abstract. A central issue in autonomic management is how to coordinate several autonomic management processes, which is assumed to require significant knowledge exchange. This stu...
Modern reconfigurable computing systems feature powerful hybrid architectures with multiple microprocessor cores, large reconfigurable logic arrays and distributed memory hierarch...
— In this paper we develop a new dual decomposition method for optimizing a sum of convex objective functions corresponding to multiple agents but with coupled constraints. In ou...
Decentralized MDPs provide powerful models of interactions in multi-agent environments, but are often very difficult or even computationally infeasible to solve optimally. Here we...
While Boolean logic minimization is typically used in logic synthesis, logic minimization can be useful in numerous other applications. However, many of those applications, such a...
