Assigning tasks to agents is complex, especially in highly dynamic environments. Typical protocol-based approaches for task assignment such as Contract Net have proven their value...
Large-scale database integration requires a significant cost in developing a global schema and finding mappings between the global and local schemas. Developing the global schema r...
There is increasing evidence to suggest that the neocortex of the mammalian brain does not consist of a collection of specialised and dedicated cortical architectures, but instead ...

In this paper, we investigate the problem of repeater insertion for low power under a given timing budget. We propose a novel repeater insertion algorithm to compute the optimal r...
When integrating software threads together to boost performance on a processor with instruction-level parallel processing support, it is rarely clear which code regions should be ...
