This paper presents a novel, unified distributed constraint satisfaction framework based on automated negotiation. The Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problem (DCSP) is one t...
In this paper the distributed Constraint Satisfaction Ant Algorithm (CSAA) framework is presented. It uses an ant-based system for the distributed solving of constraint satisfacti...
To build a cooperative logistics network covering multiple enterprises, a planning method that can build a long-distance transportation network is required. Many strict constraints...
In this paper, we consider quantitative temporal or spatial constraint networks whose constraints evolve over time in an ultimately periodic fashion. These constraint networks are...
