The problem of maintaining a desired number of mobile agents on a network is not trivial, especially if what is required is a completely decentralized solution. Decentralized control makes a system more robust and less susceptible to partial failures. The problem of agent population management is exacerbated on wireless ad hoc networks where host mobility can result in significant changes in th...
متن کاملWeed management: a need for ecological approaches
Agriculture is the process of managing plant communities to obtain useful materials from the small set of species we call crops. Weeds comprise the “other” set of plant species found in agroecosystems. Although they are not intentionally sown, weed species are well adapted to environments dominated by humans and have been associated with crop production since the origins of agriculture (Harlan,...
متن کاملShifting the Paradigm in Human Resource Management: from the Resource-based View to Complex Adaptive Systems
The resource-based view (RBV) has been welcomed by researchers as a sound basis upon which to develop theory in the field of HRM. However, we argue that the RBV is overly rationalistic, unitarist and internally focused compared with what we know about organizations from sociological and institutionalist perspectives. The more recent complex adaptive systems perspective constitutes a more promis...
