Nonlinear constraint systems can be solved by combining consistency techniques and search. In this approach, the search space is reduced using local reasoning on constraints. Howev...
For a given set of search engines, a search engine is redundant if its searchable contents can be found from other search engines in this set. In this paper, we propose a method t...
Systems using Software Agents (or Multi-Agent Systems, MAS) are becoming more popular within the development mainstream because, as the name suggests, an Agent aims to handle task...

Topological relationships like overlap, inside, meet, and disjoint uniquely characterize the relative position between objects in space. For a long time, they have been a focus of...
Adaptivity has become a prominent research topic during the past decades. There is a variety of application areas where adaptation can add benefit to systems, reaching from shoppi...
