In this paper we present a macroscopic model for the analysis of homogeneous task-directed multi-robot systems (MRS). The model is used to compute the probability that a given MRS ...
Experimental computer systems research typically ignores the end-user, modeling him, if at all, in overly simple ways. We argue that this (1) results in inadequate performance eva...

Industrial control systems architectures have been evolving to the decentralization of control tasks. This evolution associated with the time-critical nature of these tasks, incre...
