The distributed constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) is a general formalisation used to represent problems in distributed multiagent systems. To deal with realistic problems, mult...
Developing dispatching rules for manufacturing systems is a tedious process, which is time- and cost-consuming. Since there is no good general rule for different scenarios and ob...
We present a new polynomial-space algorithm for solving Distributed Constraint Optimization problems (DCOP). The algorithm, called NCBB, is branch and bound search with modificati...
The problem investigated in this paper is the distribution of goals addressed to a group of rational agents. Those agents are characterized by their ability (i.e. what they can do...
This paper presents a distributed planning and control architecture for autonomous Multi-Manipulator Systems (MMS). The control architecture is implemented using an agent-based ap...
