Abstract— Emerging spread spectrum high-speed data networks utilize multiple channels via orthogonal codes or frequency-hopping patterns such that multiple users can transmit con...
We introduce tractable classes of VCSP instances based on convex cost functions. Firstly, we show that the class of VCSP instances satisfying the hierarchically nested convexity pr...
Software product-lines (SPLs) are software architectures that can be readily reconfigured for different project requirements. A key part of an SPL is a model that captures the rul...

Soft constraints extend classical constraints to deal with non-functional requirements, overconstrained problems and preferences. Bistarelli, Montanari and Rossi have developed a ...

Abstract—Many distributed applications require a group of destinations to be coordinated with a single source. Multicasting is a communication paradigm to implement these distrib...
