Distributed systems generally require their component parts to interact cooperatively, in order for the system as a whole to function effectively. For any given activity, several ...
This paper presents a new stereo matching algorithm based on inter-regional cooperative optimization. The proposed algorithm uses regions as matching primitives and defines the co...
This paper describes a general approach to constructing cooperative services that span multiple administrative domains. In such environments, protocols must tolerate both Byzantin...
