—A promising method of automating management tasks in computing systems is to formulate them as control or optimization problems in terms of performance metrics. For an online op...
We describe a VRML/Java-based virtual environment that is populated with heterogeneous articulated agents. In this simulated environment, agents compete for collecting certain obj...
—In distributed computing systems (DCSs) where server nodes can fail permanently with nonzero probability, the system performance can be assessed by means of the service reliabil...
Current computational trust models are usually built either on an agent's direct experience of an interaction partner (interaction trust) or reports provided by third parties...
