The problem of finding an optimal bipartition of a rectangle set has a direct impact on query performance of dynamic R-trees. During update operations, overflowed nodes need to be...
In this paper we present a performance study of memory reference behavior in network protocol processing, using an Internet-based protocol stack implemented in the x-kernel runnin...

We introduce Multi-Trials, a new technique for symmetry breaking for distributed algorithms and apply it to various problems in general graphs. For instance, we present three rand...
In many Multi-Agent Systems (MAS), agents (even if selfinterested) need to cooperate in order to maximize their own utilities. Most of the multi-agent learning algorithms focus on...
