In battery powered systems such as wireless sensor networks, energy efficiency is one of the most important system design goals. In this paper, energy efficiency is examined fro...
The management of IT landscapes consisting of thousands of business applications, different middleware systems, and supporting various business processes is a challenge for modern...
We propose an efficient method that applies directed soft arc consistency to a Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (DCOP) which is a fundamental framework of multi-agent ...
