The Ponder Policy Specification Language
- LECTURE NOTES IN COMPUTER SCIENCE
, 2001
"... The Ponder language provides a common means of specifying security policies that map onto various access control implementation mechanisms for firewalls, operating systems, databases and Java. It supports obligation policies that are event triggered conditionaction rules for policy based management ..."

Composition of Qualitative Adaptation Policies
"... In a highly dynamic environment, software systems requires a capacity of self-adaptation to fit the environment and the user needs evolution, which increases the software architecture complexity. Despite most current execution platforms include some facilities for handling dynamic adaptation, curren ..."

, current design methodologies do not address this issue. One of the requirement for such a design process is to describe adaptation policies in a composable and qualitative fashion in order to cope with complexity. This paper introduces an approach for describing adaptation policies in a qualitative way
Markov games as a framework for multi-agent reinforcement learning
- IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE ELEVENTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON MACHINE LEARNING
, 1994
"... In the Markov decision process (MDP) formalization of reinforcement learning, a single adaptive agent interacts with an environment defined by a probabilistic transition function. In this solipsistic view, secondary agents can only be part of the environment and are therefore fixed in their behavior ..."

Finite-time analysis of the multiarmed bandit problem
- Machine Learning
, 2002
"... Abstract. Reinforcement learning policies face the exploration versus exploitation dilemma, i.e. the search for a balance between exploring the environment to find profitable actions while taking the empirically best action as often as possible. A popular measure of a policy’s success in addressing ..."

Coverage Control for Mobile Sensing Networks
, 2002
"... This paper presents control and coordination algorithms for groups of vehicles. The focus is on autonomous vehicle networks performing distributed sensing tasks where each vehicle plays the role of a mobile tunable sensor. The paper proposes gradient descent algorithms for a class of utility functio ..."

Geography-informed Energy Conservation for Ad Hoc Routing
- ACM MOBICOM
, 2001
"... We introduce a geographical adaptive fidelity (GAF) algorithm that reduces energy consumption in ad hoc wireless networks. GAF conserves energy by identifying nodes that are equivalent from a routing perspective and then turning off unnecessary nodes, keeping a constant level of routing fidelity. GA ..."

A Fast File System for UNIX
- ACM Transactions on Computer Systems
, 1984
"... A reimplementation of the UNIX file system is described. The reimplementation provides substantially higher throughput rates by using more flexible allocation policies that allow better locality of reference and can be adapted to a wide range of peripheral and processor characteristics. The new file ..."
