Computational Design Principles for Multiple Autonomous Vehicle Organization Alfred

In Distributed Artificial Intelligence (AI), a bifurcation in design principles can be observed. On the one hand there seems to be a resurgence of the ’classical’ AI approach of bestowing agents with human-like intelligent capacities and on the other hand there is an anti-representational school emerging. Classical AI has had to endure severe criticisms while anti-representational approaches fa...

Change and Social Organization

Organizations continually adapt to external organizational imperatives such as technology, population, knowledge and values. The increasing rate and intensity of these imperatives necessitates fhanges in services irrespective of the organization's formal intentions to change. It is suggested that organizational characteristics amenable to handling change do not occur randomly. Six organizationa...

The Structure of Torsion Abelian Groups given by Presentations by Peter Crawley and Alfred W, Hales

If each of the elements in R involves only one generator in X, then G(X, R) is a direct sum of cyclic groups. On the other hand, if G is any abelian group, then GÇ=G(X, i?), where each element in R involves at most three generators in X; indeed this isomorphism results if we take X = G and R equal to the set of all elements in F o of the form x+y~ z, where z = x+y in G. Our purpose here is to i...
