Macroprogramming refers to the theory and practice of expressing the macro (scopic)
behaviour of a collective system using a single program. Macroprogramming approaches …

Edge computing promotes the execution of complex computational processes without the
cloud, ie, on top of the heterogeneous, articulated, and possibly mobile systems composed …

Collectiveness is an important property of many systems—both natural and artificial. By
exploiting a large number of individuals, it is often possible to produce effects that go far …

Research trends are pushing artificial intelligence (AI) across the Internet of Things (IoT)–
edge–fog–cloud continuum to enable effective data analytics, decision making, as well as …

Supported by current socio-scientific trends, programming the global behaviour of whole
computational collectives makes for great opportunities, but also significant challenges …

Recently, vast investments have been made worldwide in developing Cyber-Physical
Systems (CPS) as solutions to key socio-economic challenges. The Internet-of-Things (IoT) …

This work explores the large-scale multi-agent communication mechanism for multi-agent
reinforcement learning (MARL). We summarize the general topology categories for …

Developing and releasing multiservice applications rely upon a pipeline of automation tools
known as Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment. Among those tools, continuous …

Emerging cyber-physical systems, such as robot swarms, crowds of augmented people, and
smart cities, require well-crafted self-organizing behavior to properly deal with dynamic …

Swarm behaviour engineering is an area of research that seeks to investigate methods for
coordinating computation and action within groups of simple agents to achieve complex …
