In many applications, such as decision support, negotiation, planning, scheduling, etc., one needs to express requirements that can only be partially satisfied. In order to expres...
This paper presents a tabu search metaheuristic algorithm for the automatic generation of structural software tests. It is a novel work since tabu search is applied to the automat...
We present a new property driven pruning algorithm in dynamic model checking to efficiently detect race conditions in multithreaded programs. The main idea is to use a lockset base...
Hybrid algorithms combining local and systematic search often use nondeterminism in fundamentally different ways. They may differ in the strategy to explore the search tree and/o...
Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problems (DCSPs) provide a model to capture a broad range of cooperative multiagent problem solving settings. Researchers have generally propos...
