Abstract--The particle swarm is an algorithm for finding optimal regions of complex search spaces through the interaction of individuals in a population of particles. Even though t...
Mashups integrate a set of Web-services and data sources, often referred to as mashlets. We study in this paper a common scenario where these mashlets are components of larger Web...

In multi-agent planning environments, action models for each agent must be given as input. However, creating such action models by hand is difficult and time-consuming, because i...
This paper presents the CQ algorithm which decomposes and solves a Markov Decision Process (MDP) by automatically generating a hierarchy of smaller MDPs using state variables. The ...
