The growing cost of tuning and managing computer systems is leading to out-sourcing of commercial services to hosting centers. These centers provision thousands of dense servers w...
When searching the space of possible plans for combined planning and scheduling problems we often reach a local maximum and must either backtrack or otherwise modify the plan to m...
Operation management of underground passenger transport systems is associated with combinatorial optimization problems (known as crew and train scheduling and rostering) which bel...
We present a new algorithm that reduces the space complexity of heuristic search. It is most effective for problem spaces that grow polynomially with problem size, but contain lar...
Temporal reasoning is an important task in many areas of computer science including planning, scheduling, temporal databases and instruction optimisation for compilers. Given a kno...
