We propose a self-organizing sleep-wake sensor system that is scalable, easily implemented, and energy conserving. An application of concepts from cellular automata theory account...

Distributed mechanisms that regulate the behavior of autonomous agents in open multi-agent systems (MAS) are of high interest since we cannot employ centralized approaches relying...
Publish/subscribe (P/S) is a communication paradigm of growing popularity for information dissemination in largescale distributed systems. The strong decoupling between informatio...
In biology, many organisms coordinate their interactions in a self-organizing and emergent way solely by means of indirect communication based on chemical substances. These so-cal...
We investigate periodic time synchronization of networks without centralized control, which can be modeled as a problem of aligning local variables taking values on a circle. Sync...
Supporting Web-based services through geographical distributed clusters of servers is a common solution to the increasing volume and variability of modern traffic. These architec...

Self-adaptive systems are able to autonomously adapt to changing user requirements and resource variability at runtime, therefore addressing the problem of software complexity and...
Many self-organizing and self-adaptive systems use the biologically inspired “gradient” primitive, in which each device in a network estimates its distance to the closest devi...
