In this paper, we propose a Quantified Distributed Constraint Optimization problem (QDCOP) that extends the framework of Distributed Constraint Optimization problems (DCOPs). DCOP...
The data distribution problem is very complex, because it involves trade-offdecisions between minimizing communication and maximizing parallelism. A common approach towards solving...
Multi-agent systems (MAS) is an accepted paradigm in safety-critical systems, like the production automation. Agents control the underlying machinery they are representing and int...
