We propose an efficient method that applies directed soft arc consistency to a Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (DCOP) which is a fundamental framework of multi-agent ...
—In this paper, we study the problem of utility maximization in Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems, in which aggregate utilities are maximized by running distributed algorithms on P2P no...

—IEEE 802.11 WiFi equipment based wireless mesh networks have recently been proposed as an inexpensive approach to connect far-flung rural areas. Such networks are built using h...
Many multimedia applications rely on the computation of logarithms, for example, when estimating log-likelihoods for Gaussian Mixture Models. Knowing of the demand to compute loga...
This paper considers the problem of electing an eventual leader in an asynchronous shared memory system. While this problem has received a lot of attention in messagepassing syste...
