— We consider a network of rechargeable sensors, deployed redundantly in a random sensing environment, and address the problem of how sensor nodes should be activated dynamically...
Automated trust negotiation is an approach which establishes trust between strangers through the bilateral, iterative disclosure of digital credentials. Sensitive credentials are ...
This paper proposes an intuitive configuration tool for autonomic pervasive computing systems. Specifically the paper presents a system for the inference of user task intentions f...
In this paper we consider a failure prone, single machine, single part-type, limited inventory, manufacturing system subject to a non-homogeneous Markov failure/repair process wit...
The current framework of reinforcement learning is based on maximizing the expected returns based on scalar rewards. But in many real world situations, tradeoffs must be made amon...
