As application complexity increases, modern embedded systems have adopted heterogeneous processing elements to enhance the computing capability or to reduce the power consumption. ...
Abstract Ontology alignment is an important task for information integration systems that can make different resources, described by various and heterogeneous ontologies, interoper...
Through automated negotiation we aim to improve task allocation in a distributed sensor network. In particular, we look at a type of adaptive weather-sensing radar that permits th...
In agent systems, different (autonomous) agents collaborate to execute complex tasks. Each agent provides a set of useful capabilities, and the agent system combines these capabili...
A partition of a set of n items is a grouping of the items into k disjoint classes of equal size. Any partition can be modeled as a graph: the items become the vertices of the grap...
