Heuristics are an increasingly popular solution method for combinatorial optimization problems. Heuristic use often frees the modeler from some of the restrictions placed on class...
The parametric data model captures an object in terms of a single tuple. This feature eliminates unnecessary self-join operations to combine tuples scattered in a temporal relatio...
Frameworks for cooperative multiagent decision making may be divided into those where each agent is assigned a single variable (SVFs) and those where each agent carries an interna...
