Dynamic Agent Ordering in Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problems
The distributed constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) is a general formalisation used to represent problems in distributed multiagent systems. To deal with realistic problems, mult...

Finding Crucial Subproblems to Focus Global Search
Traditional global search heuristics to solve constraint satisfaction problems focus on properties of an individual variable that mandate early search attention. If, however, one ...

Evaluating and Improving Modern Variable and Revision Ordering Strategies in CSPs
A key factor that can dramatically reduce the search space during constraint solving is the criterion under which the variable to be instantiated next is selected. For this purpos...

Complexity Analysis of Heuristic CSP Search Algorithms
CSP search algorithms are exponential in the worst-case. A trivial upper bound on the time complexity of CSP search algorithms is O∗ (dn ), where n and d are the number of variab...

A Hybrid Schema for Systematic Local Search
Abstract. We present a new hybrid constraint solving schema which retains some systematicity of constructive search while incorporating the heuristic guidance and lack of commitmen...
