Despite the success of the BDI approach to agent teamwork, initial role allocation (i.e. deciding which agents to allocate to key roles in the team) and role reallocation upon fai...
We present a multi-agent coordination technique to maintain throughput of a large-scale agent network system in the face of failures of agents. Failures do not just deteriorate th...
Although compile-time optimizations generally improve program performance, degradations caused by individual techniques are to be expected. One promising research direction to ove...
Abstract. Many parallel scienti c applications have dynamic and irregular computational structure. However, most such applications exhibit persistence of computational load and com...

A fundamental requirement for cooperating agents is to agree on a selection of component values of objects that can be used for reliably communicating references to the objects, to...
