: Synchronous finite state machines are very important for digital sequential designs. Among other important aspects, they represent a powerful way for synchronizing hardware comp...
We present a simple model of distributed multi-agent multi-issued contract negotiation for open systems where interactions are competitive and information is private and not shared...

This paper introduces a new collective learning genetic algorithm (CLGA) which employs individual learning to do intelligent recombination based on a cooperative exchange of knowl...
We introduce point-based dynamic programming (DP) for decentralized partially observable Markov decision processes (DEC-POMDPs), a new discrete DP algorithm for planning strategie...
Many optimization problems can be expressed us ing some form of soft constraints, where different measures of desirability arc associated with differ ent combinations of domai...
