An Adaptive Object Allocation and Replication Algorithm in Distributed Databases
In a Distributed Database System (DDBS), transactions on objects can be read requests or write requests in a random manner. The replication algorithm of objects critically affects...

A general, fully distributed multi-agent planning algorithm
We present a fully distributed multi-agent planning algorithm. Our methodology uses distributed constraint satisfaction to coordinate between agents, and local planning to ensure ...

Benchmarking hybrid algorithms for distributed constraint optimisation games
In this paper, we consider algorithms for distributed constraint optimisation problems (DCOPs). Using a potential game characterisation of DCOPs, we decompose six distributed DCOP...
