Bumblebees: a multiagent combinatorial optimization algorithm inspired by social insect behaviour
This paper introduces a multiagent optimization algorithm inspired by the collective behavior of social insects. In our method, each agent encodes a possible solution of the probl...

A Market-Based Optimization Algorithm for Distributed Systems
In this paper, a market-based decomposition method for decomposable linear systems is developed. The solution process iterates between a master problem that solves the market-matc...
