In this paper, we propose a multi-agent approach for solving a class of optimization problems involving expensive resources, where monolithic local search schemes perform miserabl...
— Static resources allocation problems have been widely studied. More recently some of this attention has changed to focus on dynamic problems, where problem specifications, con...
Real life optimization problems often require finding optimal solution to complex high dimensional, multimodal problems involving computationally very expensive fitness function e...
LeSelect is a mediator system which allows scientists to publish their resources (data and programs) so they can be transparently accessed. The scientists can typically issue quer...
Distributed constraint optimization (DCOP) is a promising approach to coordination, scheduling and task allocation in multi agent networks. In large-scale or low-bandwidth network...
