Distributed Constraint Optimization (DCOP) is a key technique for solving multiagent coordination problems. Unfortunately, finding minimal-cost DCOP solutions is NP-hard. We there...
Distributed systems comprised of autonomous self-interested entities require some sort of control mechanism to ensure the predictability of the interactions that drive them. This ...

This paper presents the design and implementation of RT-EP (Real-Time Ethernet Protocol), which is a software-based token-passing Ethernet protocol for multipoint communications in...
We introduce a new type of query, called a real-time continuous query (RCQ), that captures the real-time requirements of processing data streams. We develop techniques to efficien...
