Parallel Algorithms with Optimal Speedup for Bounded Treewidth
We describe the rst parallel algorithm with optimal speedup for constructing minimum-width tree decompositions of graphs of bounded treewidth. On n-vertex input graphs, the algori...

Pseudo-Tree-Based Incomplete Algorithm for Distributed Constraint Optimization with Quality Bounds
A Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (DCOP) is a fundamental problem that can formalize various applications related to multi-agent cooperation. Since it is NP-hard, consi...

A Grid-enabled Branch and Bound Algorithm for Solving Challenging Combinatorial Optimization Problems
Solving optimally large instances of combinatorial optimization problems requires a huge amount of computational resources. In this paper, we propose an adaptation of the parallel...

An Asymptotically Optimal Bandit Algorithm for Bounded Support Models
Multiarmed bandit problem is a typical example of a dilemma between exploration and exploitation in reinforcement learning. This problem is expressed as a model of a gambler playi...

MB-DPOP: A New Memory-Bounded Algorithm for Distributed Optimization
In distributed combinatorial optimization problems, dynamic programming algorithms like DPOP ([Petcu and Faltings, 2005]) require only a linear number of messages, thus generating...
