The competitive layer model (CLM) can be described by an optimization problem. The problem can be further formulated by an energy function, called the CLM energy function, in the s...
Abstract— Many emerging applications for peer to peer overlays may require nodes to satisfy strict timing deadlines to access a replica of a given object. This includes multimedi...
— In the real world, noisy sensors and limited communication make it difficult for robot teams to coordinate in tightly coupled tasks. Team members cannot simply apply single-ro...
