— This paper discusses the problem of generating patrol paths for a team of mobile robots inside a designated target area. Patrolling requires an area to be visited repeatedly by...
Having stealth and lightweight authentication methods is empowering network administrators to shelter critical services from adversaries. Spread-Spectrum TCP (SSTCP) [1] is one of...
Past years have witnessed a growing interest in automated negotiation as a coordination mechanism for interacting agents. This paper presents a generic, problem- and domain-indepen...
We propose an unsupervised “local learning” algorithm for learning a metric in the input space. Geometrically, for a given query point, the algorithm finds the minimum volume ...
— We study the problem of generating continuous steering control for robots to completely cover a bounded region over a finite time. First, we pack the area by disks of minimum ...
