In this paper we introduce Challenger, a multiagent system that performs completely distributed resource allocation. Challenger consists of agents which individually manage local ...
During the last few years, and in an attempt to provide an ecient alternative to classical methods to designing robot control structures, the behavior-based approach has emerged....
For large problems the ATMS often becomes the main resource consumer in any reasoning system. We propose an architecture (the 2vATMS) that combines the advantages of two techniques...
With semiconductor fabrication technologies scaled below 100 nm, the design-manufacturing interface becomes more and more complicated. The resultant process variability causes a nu...
