— Inter-robot communication is essential if general purpose intelligent decentralized multiple-robot systems are to become a reality. Traditionally, explicit communication amongs...
We consider random instances of constraint satisfaction problems where each variable has domain size O(1), each constraint is on O(1) variables and the constraints are chosen from...
In this paper, we present a stochastic model for the dynamic fleet management problem with random travel times. Our approach decomposes the problem into time-staged subproblems by...
Abstract. We propose a simple, general, randomized technique to reduce certain geometric optimization problems to their corresponding decision problems. These reductions increase t...
Unpredictability in the running time of complete search procedures can often be explained by the phenomenon of "heavy-tailed cost distributions", meaning that at any tim...
