Discovering frequent patterns to bootstrap trust
(Springer International Publishing, 2013)When a new agent enters to an open multiagent system, bootstrapping its trust becomes a challenge because of the lack of any direct or reputational evidence. To get around this problem, existing approaches assume the same ... -
Drone routing for post-disaster damage assessment
(Springer, 2021)We consider drones to support post-disaster damage assessment operations when the disaster-affected area is divided into grids and grids are clustered based on their attributes. Specifically, given a set of drones and a ... -
Effect of boronizing and WC coating on the high temperature mechanical behavior of AISI 321 stainless steel
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd, 2022)In the current paper, the effect of two different coating techniques of boronizing and tungsten carbide (WC) coating on the room and high temperature tensile behavior of the AISI 321 stainless steel were investigated. ... -
Effect of the motion pattern on the turbulence generated by an active grid
(Springer, 2021)In the field of turbulence research, many experiments are performed using turbulence generated under reproducible conditions. In the past mostly static grids having a fixed blockage were adopted, but in order to generate ... -
Effort estimation for architectural refactoring to introduce module isolation
(Springer, 2014)The decomposition of software architecture into modular units is driven by both functional and quality concerns. Dependability and security are among quality concerns that require a software to be decomposed into separate ... -
FAS: introducing a service for avoiding faults in composite services
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2012)In service-oriented architectures, composite services depend on a set of partner services to perform the required tasks. These partner services may become unavailable due to system and/or network faults, leading to an ... -
The fifth automated negotiating agents competition (ANAC 2014)
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2016)In May 2014, we organized the Fifth International Automated Negotiating Agents Competition (ANAC 2014) in conjunction with AAMAS 2014. ANAC is an international competition that challenges researchers to develop a successful ... -
Finite approximations in discrete-time stochastic control : quantized models and asymptotic optimality
(Birkhäuser Basel, 2018)In a unified form, this monograph presents fundamental results on the approximation of centralized and decentralized stochastic control problems, with uncountable state, measurement, and action spaces. It demonstrates how ... -
Finite approximations in discrete-time stochastic control quantized models and asymptotic optimality introduction and summary
(Birkhäuser Basel, 2018)Control and optimization of dynamical systems in the presence of stochastic uncertainty is a mature field with a large range of applications. A comprehensive treatment of such problems can be found in excellent books and ... -
Finite model approximations in decentralized stochastic control
(Birkhäuser Basel, 2018)In this chapter, we study the approximation of static and dynamic team problems using finite models which are obtained through the uniform discretization, on a finite grid, of the observation and action spaces of agents. ... -
Finite-action approximation of Markov decision processes
(Birkhäuser Basel, 2018)In this chapter, we study the finite-action approximation of optimal control policies for discrete-time Markov decision processes (MDPs) with Borel state and action spaces, under discounted and average cost criteria. One ... -
Finite-state approximation of Markov decision processes
(Springer, 2018)In this chapter we study the finite-state approximation problem for computing near optimal policies for discrete-time MDPs with Borel state and action spaces, under discounted and average costs criteria. Even though existence ... -
Forecasting multivariate time-series data using LSTM and mini-batches
(Springer, 2020)Multivariate time-series data forecasting is a challenging task due to nonlinear interdependencies in complex industrial systems. It is crucial to model these dependencies automatically using the ability of neural networks ... -
Free simulation software and library
(Springer, 2018-01-01)With the advent of powerful computation technologies and efficient algorithms, simulators became an important tool in most engineering areas. The field of humanoid robotics is no exception; there have been numerous simulation ... -
Guiding architects in selecting architectural evolution alternatives
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2011)Although there exist methods and tools to support architecture evolution, the derivation and evaluation of alternative evolution paths are realized manually. In this paper, we introduce an approach, where architecture ... -
Hierarchical reliability assessment models for novel LED-based recessed down lighting systems
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2012)This chapter describes development of hierarchical reliability assessment models for novel LED-based lighting systems. Much of the chapter is excerpted from references (Arik et al., IEEE Trans Compon Packag Tech 33:668–679, ... -
Hybrid job scheduling for improved cluster utilization
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2014)In this paper, we investigate the models and issues as well as performance benefits of hybrid job scheduling over shared physical clusters. Clustering technologies that are currently supported include MPI, Hadoop-MapReduce ... -
IEEE 802.15.13-compliant visible light communications in vehicular networks
(Taylor & Francis, 2018-01)Current research activities and standardization efforts in intelligent transportation systems (ITS) have mainly focused around the deployment of radio frequency (RF)-based communication techniques for vehicular networking. ... -
IEEE 802.15.7: Visible light communication standard
(Taylor & Francis, 2017-01-01)Visible light communications (VLC) use the visible spectrum (wavelengths of 390-750 nm or frequency band of 400-790 THz) and provide wireless communication using omnipresent light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Since the human ... -
Implementation of network coding in wireless systems
(Springer Nature, 2018)In this chapter, we target to give extensive performance analyses about application of network coding (NC) in wireless systems, referred to as network coded cooperation (NCC), brings both diversity and multiplexing gains. ...
