A Distributed Scheduling Framework
A distributed problem solving approach to job shop scheduling is described in this paper. The approach views the system as an Organisation. Agents are assigned di erent roles and ...

Targeting Specific Distributions of Trajectories in MDPs
We define TTD-MDPs, a novel class of Markov decision processes where the traditional goal of an agent is changed from finding an optimal trajectory through a state space to realiz...

Building a Coordination Framework to Support Behavior-Based Adaptive Checkpointing for Open Distributed Embedded Systems
Checkpointing is a commonly used approach to provide fault-tolerance and improve system dependability. However, using a constant and preconfigured checkpointing frequency may comp...

Decomposition of range images using markov random fields
This paper describes a computational model for deriving a decomposition of objects from laser rangefinder data. The process aims to produce a set of parts defined by compactness a...
