QoS-guaranteed one-to-many and many-to-many multicast routing

Computer Communications, 2003
Quality-of-service (QoS) multicast routing with more than one metric has always been technically challenging, since many of them are NP-hard. Most existing QoS multicast routing algorithms are heuristic. Furthermore, many of them considered only the unicast shortest paths, either based on propagation delay or the number of hops.

Extending Alternating-Offers Bargaining in One-to-Many and Many-to-Many Settings

2009 IEEE/WIC/ACM International Joint Conference on Web Intelligence and Intelligent Agent Technology, 2009
Automating negotiations in markets where multiple buyers and sellers operate is a scientific challenge of extraordinary importance. One-to-one negotiations are classically studied as bilateral bargaining problems, while one-to-many and many-to-many negotiations are studied as auctioning problems.

Many views, many modes, many tools & one structure.

Proceedings of the 22nd ACM conference on Hypertext and hypermedia, 2011
People yearn for more integration of their information. But tools meant to help often do the opposite-pulling people and their information in different directions. Fragmentation is potentially worsened as personal information moves onto the Web and into a myriad of special-purpose, mobile-enabled applications.

Many Entropies, Many Disorders

Open Systems & Information Dynamics, 2003
To overcome the deficits of entropy as a measure for disorder when the number of states available to a system can change, Landsberg defined “disorder” as the entropy normalized to the maximum entropy. In the simplest cases, the maximum entropy is that of the equiprobable distribution, corresponding to a completely random system.

Supporting many-to-many communication

Proceedings of the 2013 workshop on Programming based on actors, agents, and decentralized control, 2013
In a variety of contexts -- from social media to wireless sensor networks -- we see increasingly complex patterns of communication, often characterized by having multiple senders for messages. This paper argues that existing communication mechanisms do not adequately support many-to-many communication, and proposes multicall -- a richer form of ...

Identity crisis of Th17 cells: Many forms, many functions, many questions

Seminars in Immunology, 2013
Th17 cells are a subset of CD4(+) effector T cells characterized by expression of the IL-17-family cytokines, IL-17A and IL-17F. Since their discovery nearly a decade ago, Th17 cells have been implicated in the regulation of dozens of immune-mediated inflammatory diseases and cancer.
