Soft constraints extend classical constraints to deal with non-functional requirements, overconstrained problems and preferences. Bistarelli, Montanari and Rossi have developed a ...

Abstract. We have presented an optimal algorithm for minimal cost loop problem (MCLP), which consists of finding a set of minimum cost loops rooted at a source node. In the MCLP, t...
Stochastic optimization problems attempt to model uncertainty in the data by assuming that (part of) the input is specified in terms of a probability distribution. We consider the...
When agents need to interact in order to solve some (possibly common) problem, resolving potential conflicts beforehand is often preferred to coordination during execution. Agents...
Recent work has shown how information theory extends conventional full-rationality game theory to allow bounded rational agents. The associated mathematical framework can be used ...
