— We consider problems where multiple agents must cooperate to control their individual state so as to optimize a common objective while communicating with each other to exchange...
Combinatorial auctions (CAs) have emerged as an important model in economics and show promise as a useful tool for tackling resource allocation in AI. Unfortunately, winner determ...
This work considers the problem of designing optimal multi-agent trajectories to patrol an environment. As performance criterion for optimal patrolling we consider the worst-case t...

The general problem of optimized video encoding has received a great deal of attention in recent years. This paper focuses on the optimization of video coding with frameskip. We p...
We give a simple proof of the Maximum Principle for smooth hybrid control systems by reducing the hybrid problem to an optimal control problem of Pontryagin type and then by using...
