Walrasian Equilibrium: Hardness, Approximations and Tractable Instances
We study the complexity issues for Walrasian equilibrium in a special case of combinatorial auction, called single-minded auction, in which every participant is interested in only ...

Easy and hard coalition resource game formation problems: a parameterized complexity analysis
Coalition formation is a key topic in multi–agent systems (mas). Coalitions enable agents to achieve goals that they may not have been able to achieve independently, and encoura...

The Impact of Balancing on Problem Hardness in a Highly Structured Domain
Random problem distributions have played a key role in the study and design of algorithms for constraint satisfaction and Boolean satisfiability, as well as in our understanding o...

Towards Parallel Non Serial Dynamic Programming for Solving Hard Weighted CSP
We introduce a parallelized version of tree-decomposition based dynamic programming for solving difficult weighted CSP instances on many cores. A tree decomposition organizes cost ...

Generating Satisfiable Problem Instances
A major difficulty in evaluating incomplete local search style algorithms for constraint satisfaction problems is the need for a source of hard problem instances that are guarante...
