Abstract. The automata-based model checking approach for randomized distributed systems relies on an operational interleaving semantics of the system by means of a Markov decision ...
Reasoning, problem solving, indeed the general process of acquiring knowledge, is not an isolated, homogenous affair involving a one agent using a single form of representation, b...
We consider dual classes of geometric coverage problems, in which disks, corresponding to coverage regions of sensors, are used to cover a region or set of points in the plane. The...

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) represent an important class of networked robotic applications that must be both highly dependable and autonomous. This paper addresses sensor deplo...
Relational Markov Decision Processes (MDP) are a useraction for stochastic planning problems since one can develop abstract solutions for them that are independent of domain size ...
