In this paper, we develop heuristics for finding good starting points when solving large-scale nonlinear constrained optimization problems (COPs). We focus on nonlinear programmi...
Abstract. In recent times, there has been an increased utilization of serverside XSLT systems as part of e-commerce and e-publishing applications. For the high volumes of data in t...
We propose a new top down search-based algorithm for compiling AND/OR Multi-Valued Decision Diagrams (AOMDDs), as representations of the optimal set of solutions for constraint opt...

Cooperative negotiation is proved to be an effective paradigm to solve complex dynamic multi-objective problems in which each objective is associated to an agent. When the multi-o...
The primary-backup replication model is one of the commonly adopted approaches to providing fault tolerant data services. Its extension to the real-time environment, however, impo...
