In this paper we present a cooperative negotiation protocol that solves a distributed resource allocation problem while conforming to soft real-time constraints in a dynamic envir...
In this paper, precedence constraint combination formalisms defined in the software domain are used to define the behavior of hardware systems. Specifically, AND-join and various ...

We consider a multi-agent optimization problem where agents aim to cooperatively minimize a sum of local objective functions subject to a global inequality constraint and a global ...
In this paper, we consider single-source, single-sink (ss-ss) multi-hop relay networks, with slow-fading Rayleigh links and single-antenna relay nodes operating under the half-dupl...
Mobile cooperative systems can facilitate cooperation by improving the flexibility of usage. However, mobile devices present some constraints that become the design and implement...
