Abstract. Although algorithms for Distributed Constraint Optimization Problems (DCOPs) have emerged as a key technique for distributed reasoning, their application faces significa...
Many problems from artificial intelligence can be described as constraint satisfaction problems over finite domains (CSP(FD)), that is, a solution is an assignment of a value to ...
