—Power and energy consumption has emerged as the premier and most constraining aspect in modern computational systems. Dynamic Voltage Scheduling (DVS) has been provably one of t...
We propose an efficient method that applies directed soft arc consistency to a Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (DCOP) which is a fundamental framework of multi-agent ...
Abstract. Methods exploiting problem symmetries have been very successful in several areas including constraint programming and SAT solving. We here recast a technique to enhance t...
In this paper we present a cooperative negotiation protocol that solves a distributed resource allocation problem while conforming to soft real-time constraints in a dynamic envir...
The Valued Constraint Satisfaction Problem (VCSP) is a generic optimization problem defined by a network of local cost functions defined over discrete variables. It has applicatio...
