List scheduling algorithms attempt to minimize latency under resource constraints using a priority list. We propose a new heuristic that can be used in conjunction with any priori...
Abstract. The need for supporting CSCW applications with heterogeneous and varying user requirements calls for adaptive and reconfigurable schedulers accommodating a mixture of re...
Abstract. Scheduling the execution of multiple concurrent tasks on shared resources such as CPUs and network links is essential to ensuring the reliable operation of many autonomic...

Conversation policies codify the allowable exchanges of speech acts among agents as they execute specific types of tasks. Both the set of agents in a community, and the nature of...
Many optimisation problems contain substructures involving constraints on sequences of decision variables. Such constraints can be very complex to express with mixed integer progra...
