We consider the problem of designing error correcting codes (ECC), a hard combinatorial optimization problem of relevance in the field of telecommunications. This problem is tackl...
We present a new series of distributed constraint satisfaction algorithms, the distributed breakout algorithms, which is inspired by local search algorithms for solving the constr...
The stable marriage problem (SM) has a wide variety of practical applications, ranging from matching resident doctors to hospitals, to matching students to schools, or more general...
