Minimizing the rank of a matrix subject to constraints is a challenging problem that arises in many applications in control theory, machine learning, and discrete geometry. This c...
Distributed Constraint Optimization (DCOP) is a key technique for solving multiagent coordination problems. Unfortunately, finding minimal-cost DCOP solutions is NP-hard. We there...
In environmental and natural resource planning domains actions are taken at a large number of locations over multiple time periods. These problems have enormous state and action s...
—Layered streaming is an effective solution to address the receiver heterogeneity in peer-to-peer (P2P) multimedia distribution. This paper targets a fundamental challenge in thi...
Abstract. In this paper, we propose a new approach, parallel iterative improvement (PII), to solving the stable matching problem. This approach treats the stable matching problem a...
