In this paper we formulate a combinatorial auction brokering problem as a set packing problem and apply a simulated annealing heuristic with hybrid local moves to solve the proble...
We present black-box techniques for learning how to interleave the execution of multiple heuristics in order to improve average-case performance. In our model, a user is given a s...

The logical and algorithmic properties of stable conditional independence (CI) as an alternative structural representation of conditional independence information are investigated...
We present a new series of distributed constraint satisfaction algorithms, the distributed breakout algorithms, which is inspired by local search algorithms for solving the constr...
This paper presents a pseudo-functional BIST scheme that attempts to minimize the over-testing problem of logic BIST for delay and crosstalk-induced failures. The over-testing pro...
