Abstract— This paper develops a novel mechanism for managing the performance and feasibility trade off withing predictive control. Specifically, it demonstrates that the potenti...
Abstract. The importance of modularity in product innovation is analyzed in this paper. Through simulations with an agent-based modular economic model, we examine the significance...
In the context of SLA based job scheduling for high performance grid computing, this paper investigates the behaviour of various scheduling heuristics to schedule SLA-bounded jobs...
We sketch how to express typical features of agent communication protocols in a simple temporal logic and show that conformance verification at runtime reduces to a generalised f...
