System developments and research on parallel query processing have concentrated either on "Shared Everything" or "Shared Nothing" architectures so far. While t...
The conventional independent component regression (ICR), as an exclusive two-step implementation algorithm, has the risk similar to principal component regression (PCR). That is, t...
Systems using Software Agents (or Multi-Agent Systems, MAS) are becoming more popular within the development mainstream because, as the name suggests, an Agent aims to handle task...

One large and quite interesting family of MAS applications is characterized (1) by their large scale in terms of number of agents and physical distribution, (2) by their very dynam...
