In wireless mesh network (WMN), multiple service providers (SPs) can cooperate to share resources (e.g., relay nodes and spectrum), to serve their collective subscribed customers for better service. As a reward, SPs are able to achieve more…
Collaboration is a fundamental and essential characteristic of many complex systems, ranging from ant colonies to human societies. Each component within a complex system interacts with others, even at a distance, to accomplish a given task.…
We propose a method, based on empirical game theory, for a robot operating as part of a team to choose its role within the team without explicitly communicating with team members, by leveraging its knowledge about the team structure. To do…
Recent mobile equipment (as well as the norm IEEE 802.21) now offers the possibility for users to switch from one technology to another (vertical handover). This allows flexibility in resource assignments and, consequently, increases the…
We consider the problem of cooperation in distributed wireless networks of selfish and free transmitters aiming at maximizing their energy-efficiency. The strategy of each transmitter consists in choosing his power control (PC) policy. Two…
We consider a coalition formation setting where each agent belongs to one of the two types, and agents' preferences over coalitions are determined by the fraction of the agents of their own type in each coalition. This setting differs from…
In this paper, we introduce an agent-based model for coalition formation which is suitable for our usecase. We propose here two clearing-houses mechanisms that return sound matchings. The first aims at maximizing the global satisfaction of…
A distributed adaptive algorithm to estimate a time-varying signal, measured by a wireless sensor network, is designed and analyzed. One of the major features of the algorithm is that no central coordination among the nodes needs to be…
This paper investigates the agent design for solving the wireless resource allocation problem without sufficient channel state information (CSI), which cannot be effectively solved via conventional method. In the considered wireless agent…
Many algorithms for control of multi-robot teams operate under the assumption that low-latency, global state information necessary to coordinate agent actions can readily be disseminated among the team. However, in harsh environments with…
Spatial modeling of wireless networks via analytical means has been considered as a widely practiced mechanism for inference. As a result, some geometrical deployment models have been proposed in literature. Although practical in certain…
Coordination is a desirable feature in multi-agent systems, allowing the execution of tasks that would be impossible by individual agents. We study coordination by a team of strategic agents choosing to undertake one of the multiple tasks.…
Collaborative Perception (CP) has shown great potential to achieve more holistic and reliable environmental perception in intelligent unmanned systems (IUSs). However, implementing CP still faces key challenges due to the characteristics of…
We consider the problem of delivering $m$ messages between specified source-target pairs in a weighted undirected graph, by $k$ mobile agents initially located at distinct nodes of the graph. Each agent consumes energy proportional to the…
In this paper, we consider a class of workspace partitioning problems that arise in the context of area coverage and spatial load balancing for spatially distributed heterogeneous multi-agent networks. It is assumed that each agent has…
We propose a framework for the derivation and evaluation of distributed iterative algorithms for receiver cooperation in interference-limited wireless systems. Our approach views the processing within and collaboration between receivers as…
In collaborative robotic cells, a human operator and a robot share the workspace in order to execute a common job, consisting of a set of tasks. A proper allocation and scheduling of the tasks for the human and for the robot is crucial for…
The introduction of relay station (RS) nodes is a key feature in next generation wireless networks such as 3GPP's long term evolution advanced (LTE-Advanced), or the forthcoming IEEE 802.16j WiMAX standard. This paper presents, using game…
The area of networking games has had a growing impact on wireless networks. This reflects the recognition in the important scaling advantages that the service providers can benefit from by increasing the autonomy of mobiles in decision…
