Designing distributed controllers for self-reconfiguring modular robots has been consistently challenging. We have developed a reinforcement learning approach which can be used bo...
In this paper we formulate the fixed budget resource allocation game to understand the performance of a distributed marketbased resource allocation system. Multiple users decide ...
Use of tags to limit partner selection for playing has been shown to produce stable cooperation in agent populations playing the Prisoner’s Dilemma game. There is, however, a lac...
In this paper we examine the problem of balancing load in a large-scale distributed system when information about server loads may be stale. It is well known that sending each req...
We describe a simple scheme for mapping synchronous language models, in the form of Boolean Mealy Machines, into timed automata. The mapping captures certain idealized implementat...
