Coalitional skill games
We consider Coalitional Skill Games (CSGs), a simple model of cooperation among agents. This is a restricted form of coalitional games, where each agent has a set of skills that a...

Point-based Dynamic Programming for DEC-POMDPs
We introduce point-based dynamic programming (DP) for decentralized partially observable Markov decision processes (DEC-POMDPs), a new discrete DP algorithm for planning strategie...

Asynchronous algorithms for approximate distributed constraint optimization with quality bounds
Distributed Constraint Optimization (DCOP) is a popular framework for cooperative multi-agent decision making. DCOP is NPhard, so an important line of work focuses on developing f...

A game approach for multi-channel allocation in multi-hop wireless networks
Channel allocation was extensively investigated in the framework of cellular networks, but it was rarely studied in the wireless ad-hoc networks, especially in the multi-hop ad-ho...

Approximation Algorithms for Multicommodity-Type Problems with Guarantees Independent of the Graph Size
— Linial, London and Rabinovich [16] and Aumann and Rabani [3] proved that the min-cut max-flow ratio for general maximum concurrent flow problems (when there are k commodities...
