Activity Management in Cooperative Environments
… the popularity of Internet, computer supported cooperative applications in software and engineering environments have begun to emerge. However, most of them lack the support from database systems. The need for database support in these applications has become more important than ever before …

A Framework for Data Sharing in Computer Supported Cooperative Environments
… database management systems developed for non-cooperative environments. The emphasis of concurrency control in conventional database management systems is to keep users and their applications from inadvertently corrupting data rather than support a workgroup develop a product together. This …

Optimization Strategies for Qos-Sensitive VOD Service Delivery in Cooperative Environments
In QoS-aware object replication, we formulate QoS-aware replication problem where each node specifies an upper bound on the time to access a given object. The problem is to minimize the number of replicas in order to satisfy these access deadlines. We show that this problem is intractable, since it …

Reinforcement learning for trading dialogue agents in non-cooperative negotiations
… Dialogue Management have been mainly made in cooperative environments -where the dialogue system tries to help a human to meet their goals. In non-cooperative environments though, such as competitive trading, there is still much work to be done. The complexity of such an environment rises as …

Coupled nonlinear dynamical systems
… behavior of populations in competitive and cooperative environments, respectively.

Decentralized Auction Solutions for Dynamic, Networked Markets
… for decision-making processes in decentralized environments, utilizing a game-theoretic approach. By process, we define a subset of right-continuous, left-limited (cadlag) valuation functions used in order to model deterministic events. Our framework represents strategies as a finite set of …

Robust Observation and Control of Complex Networks
… control engineering, distributed applications in cooperative environments are achieving resounding success, due to the large number of relevant applications, such as formation control, attitude synchronization tasks and cooperative applications in large-scale systems. Although those problems have …

Effective Learning in Non-Stationary Multiagent Environments
… spectrum of mixed incentive, competitive, and cooperative environments.

Achieving Robustness and Generalization in MARL for Sequential Social Dilemmas through Bilinear Value Networks
… to a wide range of multi-agent competitive-cooperative environments, providing insights into the design of MARL algorithms for solving social dilemmas.

Real-time Evaluation of Vision-based Navigation for Autonomous Landing of a Rotorcraft Unmanned Aerial Vehicle in a Non-cooperative Environment
… positioning aids. Examples of these types of non-cooperative environments could range from remote mountainous regions to an urban building rooftop or a cluttered parking lot. The research of this thesis builds upon an approach that was initiated at NASA Ames Research Center to advance technology …

Belief shaping in noncooperative communication and control systems through strategic signaling
… between intelligent and selfish agents in non-cooperative environments with a specific focus on the transmission of some private information among them. We seek to quantify the ability of informed agents to shape the uninformed (rational) agents' beliefs about the private information through …

Analysis of the Relationships between Changes in Distributed System Behavior and Group Dynamics
… We call this form of systems Distributed Dynamic Cooperative Environments (DDCEs). Content in DDCEs is created and shared by the users. The content could be static (e.g., video or audio), dynamic (e.g.,wikis), and/or Objects with behavior. Objects with behavior are programmed objects that take …
