Individual business processes have been changing since the Internet was created, and they are now oriented towards a more distributed and collaborative business model, in an e-commerce environment that adapts itself to the competitive and…
Business success of companies heavily depends on the availability and performance of their client applications. Due to modern development paradigms such as DevOps and microservice architectural styles, applications are decoupled into…
The diffusion of ideas is often closely connected to the creation and diffusion of knowledge and to the technological evolution of society. Because of this, knowledge creation, exchange and its subsequent transformation into innovations for…
Supply chain management is an integrated approach for planning and controlling materials, information, and finances as they move in a process which begins from suppliers and ends with customers in forward approach. As distribution network…
Sharing systems have facilitated the redistribution of underused resources by providing convenient online marketplaces for individual sellers and buyers. However, sellers in these systems may not fully disclose the information of their…
As applications become more distributed to improve user experience and offer higher availability, businesses rely on geographically dispersed datacenters that host such applications more than ever. Dedicated inter-datacenter networks have…
The promise and proliferation of large-scale dynamic federated learning gives rise to a prominent open question - is it prudent to share data or model across nodes, if efficiency of transmission and fast knowledge transfer are the prime…
Today's era is characterized as the "digital transformation era". Digital processes and information systems are used in every aspect of social and business activity. The use of information technology over the internet is so extensive that…
Data is a precious resource in today's society, and is generated at an unprecedented and constantly growing pace. The need to store, analyze, and make data promptly available to a multitude of users introduces formidable challenges in…
Adaptive networks are well-suited to perform decentralized information processing and optimization tasks and to model various types of self-organized and complex behavior encountered in nature. Adaptive networks consist of a collection of…
We consider a multi-retailer supply chain where each retailer can dynamically choose when to share information (e.g., local inventory levels or demand observations) with other retailers, incurring a communication cost for each sharing…
The interconnected smart devices and industrial internet of things devices require low-latency communication to fulfill control objectives despite limited resources. In essence, such devices have a time-critical nature but also require a…
Agent-based systems have the capability to fuse information from many distributed sources and create better plans faster. This feature makes agent-based systems naturally suitable to address the challenges in Supply Chain Management (SCM).…
This paper presents a distributed resource selection mechanism for diverse cloud-edge environments, enabling dynamic and context-aware allocation of resources to meet the demands of complex distributed applications. By distributing the…
The performance of replication-based distributed databases is affected due to non-uniform storage across storage nodes (also called \textit{data skew}) and reduction in the replication factor during operation, particularly due to node…
Advancement in information and communication technology (ICT) has given rise to explosion of data in every field of operations. Working with the enormous volume of data (or Big Data, as it is popularly known as) for extraction of useful…
We investigate the problem of spreading information contents in a wireless ad hoc network with mechanisms embracing the peer-to-peer paradigm. In our vision, information dissemination should satisfy the following requirements: (i) it…
Today, software-intensive systems are increasingly being developed in a globally distributed way. However, besides its benefit, global development also bears a set of risks and problems. One critical factor for successful project management…
Information spreading in online social communities has attracted tremendous attention due to its utmost practical values in applications. Despite that several individual-level diffusion data have been investigated, we still lack the…
Recent work in data-driven control has led to methods that find stabilizing controllers directly from measurements of an unknown system. However, for multi-agent systems we are often interested in finding controllers that take their…
