Many problem-solving tasks can be formalized as constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs). In a multi-agent setting, information about constraints and variables may belong to differ...
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...
We formulate and study a privacy guarantee to data owners, who share information with clients by publishing views of a proprietary database. The owner identifies the sensitive pro...
Many databases will not or can not be disclosed without strong guarantees that no sensitive information can be extracted. To address this concern several data perturbation techniq...
We present a new polynomial-space algorithm, called Adopt, for distributed constraint optimization (DCOP). DCOP is able to model a large class of collaboration problems in multi-a...
