In the field of multiagent systems (MAS), the computational models of trust and reputation have attracted increasing interest since electronic and open environments became a reali...
Developing agent applications is a complex and difficult task due to a variety of reasons. One key aspect making multi-agent systems more complicated than traditional applications ...
— We consider the problem of efficiently broadcasting incremental updates to multiple terminals that contain outdated (and possibly different) initial copies of the data. This s...
Ad hoc networks rely on nodes forwarding each other’s packets, making trust and cooperation key issues for ensuring network performance. As long as all nodes in the network belo...
Damg˚ard et al. [11] showed a novel technique to convert a polynomial sharing of secret a into the sharings of the bits of a in constant rounds, which is called the bit-decomposit...
