Abstract. We provide a framework for distributed systems that impose timing constraints on their executions. We propose a timed model of communicating finite-state machines, which...
In [Dij74] Dijkstra introduced the notion of self-stabilizing algorithms, and presented three such algorithms for the problem of mutual exclusion on a ring of processors. The thir...
Reputation-based mechanisms and policies are vulnerable to the submission of untruthful ratings. In this paper, we define and analyze a game-theoretic model that captures the dyn...
— Current approaches to distributed control involving many robots generally restrict interactions to pairs of robots within a threshold distance. While this allows for provable s...
: Fuzzy Cognitive Maps (FCMs) can represent and reason causal knowledge with stronger semantics. And the causal knowledge widely exists in Knowledge Grid. To provide information se...
