Most of current peer-to-peer designs build their own system overlays independent of the physical one. Nodes within unstructured systems form a random overlay, on the contrary, str...
Many multi-agent systems consist of a complex network of autonomous yet interdependent agents. Examples of such networked multi-agent systems include supply chains and sensor netw...
re connector is an abstraction capturing interactions among components. Apart from middleware independence, connectors provide additional services (e.g., adaptation, synchronizati...
Advances in MEMS technology, wireless communications, and digital electronics have enabled the development of low-cost, low-power, multifunctional sensor nodes that integrating th...
Abstract. We present a cost-based adaptive clustering method to improve average performance of spatial queries (intersection, containment, enclosure queries) over large collections...
