This paper proposes a new multiagent planning approach to coordination synthesis that views distributed agents as discrete-event processes. The connection between discreteevent co...
Embedded systems must be cost-effective. This imposes strict requirements on the resource consumption of their applications. It is therefore desirable to be able to determine the ...
Abstract. When dealing with distributed systems, one of the most important problems that has to be addressed is concurrency. Distributed systems are inherently concurrent, distribu...
We propose a distributed on-demand power-management protocol for collecting data in sensor networks. The protocol aims to reduce power consumption while supporting fluctuating dem...
Abstract. Traditionally, autonomic computing is envisioned as replacing the human factor in the deployment, administration and maintenance of computer systems that are ever more co...
