The design of deterministic and fair mechanisms for selection among a set of self-motivated agents based solely on these agents' input is a major challenge in multiagent syst...
A common objective in mechanism design is to choose the outcome (for example, allocation of resources) that maximizes the sum of the agents' valuations, without introducing in...

Abstract. Peer-to-peer (P2P) architectures exhibit attractive properties for a wide range of real world systems. As a result they are increasingly being applied in the design of ap...

There are p heterogeneous objects to be assigned to n
competing agents (n > p) each with unit demand. It is

Abstract. This paper analyses the robustness of self-organizing (engineered) systems to perturbations (faults or environmental changes). It considers that a self-organizing system ...
