We propose and evaluate a novel framework for enforcing global coordination and control policies over interacting software components in enterprise computing environments. This fra...
This paper studies adaptive bilateral negotiation between software agents in e-commerce environments. Specifically, we assume that the agents are self-interested, the environment...
Envisioning a new generation of sensor network applications in healthcare and workplace safety, we seek mechanisms that provide timely and reliable transmissions of mission-critic...
Typical applications of evolutionary optimization in static environments involve the approximation of the extrema of functions. For dynamic environments, the interest is not to lo...
An algorithm for time division multiple access (TDMA) is desirable in sensor networks for energy management, as it allows a sensor to reduce the amount of idle listening. Also, TD...
