AI & SOCIETY, 2010
Distributed cognition provides a theoretical framework for the analysis of data from socio-technical systems within a problem-solving framework.

Distributed resource allocation in cognitive radio systems based on social foraging swarms

2010 IEEE 11th International Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communications (SPAWC), 2010
The goal of this paper is to propose a distributed resource allocation strategy for the access of opportunistic users in cognitive networks. The opportunistic, or secondary, users are modeled as a set of agents looking for the most appropriate slots to use, in the time-frequency domain, with the goal of avoiding conflicts among themselves and to yield ...
