Adaptive query processing in large distributed systems has seen increasing importance due to the rising environmental fluctuations in a growing Internet. We describe Ginga, an ad...
We consider a stochastic model for distributed average consensus, which arises in applications such as load balancing for parallel processors, distributed coordination of mobile a...
—We venture beyond the “listen-before-talk” strategy that is common in many traditional cognitive radio access schemes. We exploit the bi-directional nature of most primary c...
Abstract. Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problems (DCSP) is a general framework for multi-agent coordination and conflict resolution. In most DCSP algorithms, inter-agent com...
Abstract. We describe and model a new aspect in the design of distributed information systems. We build upon a previously described problem on the microlevel, which asks how quickl...
