Multi-agent systems are widely used to address large-scale distributed combinatorial applications in the real world. One such application is meeting scheduling (MS), which is deļ¬...
of nature, or abstract idea (collectively, a principle). The clue to the patent-eligibility of processes that do not involve substance-transformation is whether the process impleme...
We consider systems governed by partial differential equations with spatially periodic coefficients over unbounded domains. These spatially periodic systems are considered as pertu...
Let C be a code of length n over an alphabet of size q. A word d is a descendant of a pair of codewords x, y C if di {xi, yi} for 1 i n. A code C is an identifiable parent prop...
We introduce a class of voting rules called generalized scoring rules. Under such a rule, each vote generates a vector of k scores, and the outcome of the voting rule is based onl...
