Some distributed constraint optimization algorithms use a linear number of messages in the number of agents, but of exponential size. This is often the main limitation for their pr...
A new search algorithm for solving distributed constraint optimization problems (DisCOPs) is presented. Agents assign variables sequentially and propagate their assignments asynchr...
A Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (DCOP) is a fundamental problem that can formalize various applications related to multi-agent cooperation. Since it is NP-hard, consi...
