      Argumentative agent deliberation, roles and context 

      Kakas, Antonis C.; Moraïtis, Pavlos (2002)
      This paper presents an argumentation based framework to support an agent's deliberation process for drawing conclusions under a given policy. The argumentative policy of the agent is able to take into account the roles ...

      The complexity of equilibria for risk-modeling valuations 

      Mavronicolas, Marios; Monien, Burkhard (2016)
      Following the direction pioneered by Fiat and Papadimitriou in their 2010 paper [12], we study the complexity of deciding the existence of mixed equilibria for minimization games where players use valuations other than ...

      The complexity of synchronous iterative Do-All with crashes 

      Georgiou, Chryssis; Russell, A.; Shvartsman, A. A. (2004)
      The ability to cooperate on common tasks in a distributed setting is key to solving a broad range of computation problems ranging from distributed search such as SETI to distributed simulation and multi-agent collaboration. ...

      The cost of concurrent, low-contention Read&Modify&Write 

      Busch, Costas; Mavronicolas, Marios; Spirakis, Paul G. (2005)
      The possibility or impossibility and the corresponding costs of devising concurrent, low-contention implementations of atomic Read&Modify&Write (or RMW) operations in a distributed system were addressed. A natural class ...

      The Do-All problem with Byzantine processor failures 

      Fernández, A.; Georgiou, Chryssis; Russell, A.; Shvartsman, A. A. (2005)
      Do-All is the abstract problem of using n processors to cooperatively perform m independent tasks in the presence of failures. This problem and its derivatives have been a centerpiece in the study of trade-offs between ...

      Editorial message: Special track on ubiquitous computing 

      Roussos, G.; Samaras, George S.; Spinellis, D. (2004)
      Ubiquitous computing places humans in the center of environments saturated with computing and wireless communications capabilities, yet gracefully integrated, so that technology recedes in the background of everyday ...

      Efficient gossip and robust distributed computation 

      Georgiou, Chryssis; Kowalski, D. R.; Shvartsman, A. A. (2005)
      This paper presents an efficient deterministic gossip algorithm for p synchronous, crash-prone, message-passing processors. The algorithm has time complexity T=O(log2p) and message complexity M=O(p1+ε), for any ε>0. This ...

      Efficient, strongly consistent implementations of shared memory 

      Mavronicolas, Marios; Roth, D. (1992)
      We present linearizable implementations for two distributed organizations of multiprocessor shared memory. For the full caching organization, where each process keeps a local copy of the whole memory, we present a linearizable ...

      Emotional web-based design: the concepts of emotional experience and emotional expression 

      Lekkas, Zacharias; Tsianos, Nikos; Germanakos, Panagiotis; Mourlas, Constantinos; Samaras, George S. (2011)
      For many years people have been trying to measure differences between individuals. Over the course of time, a combination of developments in statistical know-how and the evolution of thought within psychology enabled the ...

      Extending planning graphs to an ADL subset 

      Koehler, J.; Nebel, B.; Hoffmann, J.; Dimopoulos, Yannis (1997)
      We describe an extension of graphplan to a subset of ADL that allows conditional and universally quantified effects in operators in such a way that almost all interesting properties of the original graph-plan algorithm are ...
