This papers deals with multiway spatial joins when (i) there is limited time for query processing and the goal is to retrieve the best possible solutions within this limit (ii) the...
Heuristic search using algorithms such as A and IDA is the prevalent method for obtaining optimal sequential solutions for classical planning tasks. Theoretical analyses of these ...
This paper presents a heuristic algorithm for solving RCPSP/max, the resource constrained project scheduling problem with generalized precedence relations. The algorithm relies, a...
Planning in partially observable environments remains a challenging problem, despite significant recent advances in offline approximation techniques. A few online methods have a...
Two methods are described for enhancing performance of branch and bound methods for overconstrained CSPS. These methods improve either the upper or lower bound, respectively, duri...
