Distributed Constraint Optimization Problems (DCOP) have, for a long time, been considered an important research area for multi-agent systems because a vast number of realworld si...
Distributed Constraint Satisfaction (DCSP) has long been considered an important problem in multi-agent systems research. This is because many real-world problems can be represent...
In this paper, we extend the traditional formalization of a Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problems (DisCSP) to a Quantified DisCSP. A Quantified DisCSP includes several unive...
In this paper we present a cooperative negotiation protocol that solves a distributed resource allocation problem while conforming to soft real-time constraints in a dynamic envir...
Mediator systems integrate distributed, heterogeneous and autonomous data sources, but their e ective use requires the solution of hard query optimization problems. This is usuall...
