Constraint satisfaction problems have enjoyed much attention since the early seventies, and in the last decade have become also a focus of attention amongst theoreticians. Graph c...
Memetic algorithms with continuous local search methods have arisen as effective tools to address the difficulty of obtaining reliable solutions of high precision for complex cont...
Fast algorithms are presented for performing computations in a probabilistic population model. This is a variant of the standard population protocol model--in which finite-state ag...
In this paper, we describe the TIMBER XML database system implemented at University of Michigan. TIMBER was one of the first native XML database systems, designed from the ground ...
In this work we present a backjumping technique for Disjunctive Logic Programming (DLP) under the Answer Set Semantics. It builds upon related techniques that had originally been p...
