Distributed Constraint Satisfaction (DCSP) has long been considered an important problem in multi-agent systems research. This is because many real-world problems can be represent...
Abstract. Dechter et al. [5] proposed solving the Temporal Constraint Satisfaction Problem (TCSP) by modeling it as a metaCSP, which is a finite CSP with a unique global constraint...
This paper develops two new algorithms for solving a finite constraint satisfaction problem (FCSP) in parallel. In particular, we give a parallel algorithm for the EREW PRAM model...
Binary Decision Diagram (BDD) based set bounds propagation is a powerful approach to solving set-constraint satisfaction problems. However, prior BDD based techniques incur the si...
Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) are new promising methods in the field of genetic and evolutionary algorithms. In the case of conventional Genetic and Evolutionary Al...
