More Powerful and Simpler Cost-Sharing Methods
We provide a new technique to derive group strategyproof mechanisms for the cost-sharing problem. Our technique is simpler and provably more powerful than the existing one based on...

Optimal Protein Threading by Cost-Splitting
Abstract. In this paper, we use integer programming approach for solving a hard combinatorial optimization problem, namely protein threading. For this sequence-to-structure alignme...

Eliciting Bid Taker Non-price Preferences in (Combinatorial) Auctions
Recent algorithms provide powerful solutions to the problem of determining cost-minimizing (or revenue-maximizing) allocations of items in combinatorial auctions. However, in many...

A New Approach to Distributed Task Assignment using Lagrangian Decomposition and Distributed Constraint Satisfaction
We present a new formulation of distributed task assignment, called Generalized Mutual Assignment Problem (GMAP), which is derived from an NP-hard combinatorial optimization probl...
