In this paper the distributed Constraint Satisfaction Ant Algorithm (CSAA) framework is presented. It uses an ant-based system for the distributed solving of constraint satisfacti...
Given a set of demands between pairs of nodes, we examine the traffic engineering problem of flow routing and fair bandwidth allocation where flows can be split to multiple paths ...
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...
This paper addresses distributed task allocation in complex scenarios modeled using the distributed constraint optimization problem (DCOP) formalism. We propose and evaluate a nov...

We model social choice problems in which self interested agents with private utility functions have to agree on values for a set of variables subject to side constraints. The goal...
