Unique and challenging security problems arise due to the scarcity of computational, storage, and power resources in the low-cost pervasive computing environment. Particularly rel...
In a reputation-based trust-management system, agents maintain information about the past behaviour of other agents. This information is used to guide future trust-based decisions...
— This paper deals with the tracking problem for constrained linear systems using a model predictive control (MPC) law. As it is well known, MPC provides a control law suitable f...
Structured overlay networks form a major class of peerto-peer systems, which are touted for their abilities to scale, tolerate failures, and self-manage. Any long-lived Internet-s...
: Perhaps the two most significant theoretical questions about the programming of self-assembling agents are: (1) necessary and sufficient conditions to produce a unique terminal a...
