Strategies are developed for “fattening” the tasks of computation-dags so as to accommodate the heterogeneity of remote clients in Internet-based computing (IC). Earlier work ...
— In multi-robot systems, task allocation and coordination are two fundamental problems that share high synergy. Although multi-robot architectures typically separate them into d...
