Much excitement has been generated by the success of stochastic local search procedures at finding solutions to large, very hard satisfiability problems. Many of the problems on wh...
Stochastic local search (SLS) algorithms have been successfully applied to hard combinatorial problems from different domains. Due to their inherent randomness, the run-time behav...
Planning in partially observable environments remains a challenging problem, despite significant recent advances in offline approximation techniques. A few online methods have a...
To ensure that a trust negotiation succeeds whenever possible, authorization policy compliance checkers must be able to find all minimal sets of their owners' credentials tha...
