Planning problems are often formulated as heuristic search. The choice of the heuristic function plays a significant role in the performance of planning systems, but a good heuris...
Reduced Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs) are a data structure for representation and manipulation of Boolean functions which are frequently used in VLSI Design Automation. ...
Recent work shows that the memory requirements of bestfirst heuristic search can be reduced substantially by using a divide-and-conquer method of solution reconstruction. We show...
In an open environment populated by large numbers of services, automated service composition is a major challenge. In such a setting the efficient interaction of directory-based s...
In this paper we introduce the variable fitness function which can be used to control the search direction of any search based optimisation heuristic where more than one objective ...
