Abstract— In this paper we analyze the positioning of landmarks in coordinates-based Internet distance prediction approaches with focus on Global Network Positioning (GNP). We sh...
We have developed an algorithm for reduction of search-space, called Domain Optimization Algorithm (DOA), applied to global optimization. This approach can efficiently eliminate ...

Heuristic search using algorithms such as A and IDA is the prevalent method for obtaining optimal sequential solutions for classical planning tasks. Theoretical analyses of these ...
Multi-agent planning in stochastic environments can be framed formally as a decentralized Markov decision problem. Many real-life distributed problems that arise in manufacturing,...
This paper presents an overview of our most recent results concerning the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) method. Techniques for the alleviation of local minima, and for detectin...
