We propose an efficient method that applies directed soft arc consistency to a Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (DCOP) which is a fundamental framework of multi-agent ...
Abstract. We explore a new general-purpose heuristic for nding highquality solutions to hard optimization problems. The method, called extremal optimization, is inspired by self-or...

The solution of continuous and discrete-time Markovian models is still challenging mainly when we model large complex systems, for example, to obtain performance indexes of paralle...
The last decade has witnessed a rapid proliferation of superscalar cache-based microprocessors to build high-end computing (HEC) platforms, primarily because of their generality, ...

With large amounts of correlated probabilistic data being generated in a wide range of application domains including sensor networks, information extraction, event detection etc.,...
