Abstract. This paper considers the Steiner tree problem in the model of twostage stochastic optimization with recourse. This model, the focus of much recent research [1–4], tries...
Low priority data transfer across the wide area is useful in several contexts, for example for the dissemination of large files such as OS updates, content distribution or prefet...
Distributed Constraint Optimization (DCOP) is a key technique for solving multiagent coordination problems. Unfortunately, finding minimal-cost DCOP solutions is NP-hard. We there...
Distributed problem solving by a multiagent system represents a promising approach to solving complex computational problems. However, many multiagent systems require certain degr...
—The paper addresses the problem of massive content distribution in the network where multiple sessions coexist. In the traditional approaches, the sessions form separate overlay...
