In a constraint optimization problem (COP), many feasible valuations lead to the same objective value. This often means a huge search space and poor performance in the propagation...
Recent advances in high-performance computing have pushed computational capabilities to a petaflop (a thousand trillion operations per second) in a single computing cluster. This ...
It is now well-known that the size of the model is the bottleneck when using model-based approaches to diagnose complex systems. To answer this problem, decentralized/distributed ...
The main goal of this paper is to make a step towards the development of a unified approach that incorporates both reliability and traffic engineering aspects into a common, unifie...
The emergence of Web Service has led to more research into Web Services composition. It has received much interest to support business-to-business or enterprise application integra...
