Abstract. In this article we will present some problems that have weak symmetries. In contrast to a proper symmetry, a weak symmetry acts only on a subset of the variables and pres...
An algorithm that performs asynchronous backtracking on distributed CSPs, with dynamic ordering of agents is proposed, ABT DO. Agents propose reorderings of lower priority agents a...
The tier aspect model addresses Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) in the context of database applications. It is a new technique of separation of concerns through tiers implemented...
