In a multi-agent system, agents must decide what to do and by what order. Autonomy is a key notion in such a system, since it is mainly the autonomy of the agents that makes the en...
Due to the exponential growth of both design complexity and the number of gates per pin, functional debugging has emerged as a critical step in the development of a system-on-chip...
The optimal decision for an agent to make at a given game situation often depends on the decisions that other agents make at the same time. Rational agents will try to find a stabl...
We present an optimization method and algorithm designed for three objectives: physical data independence, semantic optimization, and generalized tableau minimization. The method ...
When scientific data sets can be interpreted visually they are typically managed as pictures and consequently stored as large collections of bitmaps. Valuable information containe...
