Graph Chatbot

Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

Stochastic Strategies for a Swarm Robotic Assembly System

We present a decentralized, scalable approach to assembling a group of heterogeneous parts into different products using a swarm of robots. While the assembly plans are predetermined, the exact sequence of assembly of parts and the allocation of subassembl ...

Decentralized Control of Parallel Connection of Two Distributed Generation Units

Behrooz Bahrani

This paper presents a decentralized control strategy for the autonomous (islanded) operation of parallel connection of two distributed generation (DG) units. The DG units are electronically interfaced to the host grid at the same point of common coupling ( ...

Using Three States for Binary Consensus on Complete Graphs

Etienne Perron, Dinkar Vasudevan, Milan Vojnovic

We consider the binary consensus problem where each node in the network initially observes one of two states and the goal for each node is to eventually decide which one of the two states was initially held by the majority of the nodes. Each node contacts ...

Storing and Indexing Spatial Data in P2P Systems

The peer-to-peer (P2P) paradigm has become very popular for storing and sharing information in a totally decentralized manner. At first, research focused on P2P systems that host 1D data. Nowadays, the need for P2P applications with multidimensional data h ...

Transnational practices to benefit local science and technology: Empirical evidence of the Colombian scientific diaspora

Gabriela Tejada Guerrero

Within the current context of globalisation, trasnationalism has acquired importance as a social phenomenon and an object of study, since it shows the value that the diasporas' own decentralized mechanisms have in promoting development in the countries of ...

Effective Usage of Computational Trust Models in Rational Environments

Karl Aberer

Reputation-based trust models using statistical learning have been intensively studied for distributed systems where peers behave maliciously. However practical applications of such models in environments with both malicious and rational behaviors are stil ...

Towards Fair Event Dissemination

Rachid Guerraoui, Maxime Monod

Event dissemination in large scale dynamic systems is typically claimed to be best achieved using decentralized peer-to-peer architectures. The rationale is to have every participant in the system act both as a client (information consumer) and as a server ...

Emergent semantics

Philippe Cudré-Mauroux

In the past, the problem of semantic interoperability in information systems was mostly solved by means of centralization, both at a system and at a logical level. This approach has been successful to a certain extent, but offers limited scalability and fl ...

Efficient Contract Design in Multi-Principal Multi-Agent Supply Chains

Thomas Alois Weber

We consider a general multi-principal multi-agent contracting game in a complete-information 4supply-chain setting and determine coordinating equilibrium transfer schedules in closed form.The resulting contracts manage to align incentives for decentralized ...

A Probabilistic Framework for Decentralized Management of Trust and Quality

Karl Aberer

In this paper, we propose a probabilistic framework targeting three important issues in the computation of quality and trust in decentralized systems. Specifically, our approach addresses the multi-dimensionality of quality and trust, taking into account c ...
