We study a family of problems, called Maximum Solution, where the objective is to maximise a linear goal function over the feasible integer assignments to a set of variables subjec...
Abstract. This paper describes a novel decision procedure for quantifierfree linear integer arithmetic. Standard techniques usually relax the initial problem to the rational domai...
ngly better objective function value until an optimal solution is reached. From an abstract point of view, an augmentation problem is solved in each iteration. That is, given a fea...
Abstract. A Video-on-Demand system usually consists of a large number of independent video servers. In order to utilize network resources as efficiently as possible the overall net...
Decentralized planning in uncertain environments is a complex task generally dealt with by using a decision-theoretic approach, mainly through the framework of Decentralized Parti...
