When performed on a classical computer, the simulation of quantum circuits is usually an exponential job. The methodology based on Hardware Description Languages is able to isolat...
Abstract. Fault-tolerance is a critical issue for biochemical computation. Recent theoretical work on algorithmic self-assembly has shown that error correcting tile sets are possib...
In multi-agent MDPs, it is generally necessary to consider the joint state space of all agents, making the size of the problem and the solution exponential in the number of agents...
We consider Internet broadband access as an elastic service whose value varies across segments of the user population. We show that introducing multiple tiers of service can be an ...
Decentralized MDPs provide a powerful formal framework for planning in multi-agent systems, but the complexity of the model limits its usefulness. We study in this paper a class o...
