The particle swarm optimization algorithm was showed to converge rapidly during the initial stages of a global search, but around global optimum, the search process will become ve...

Distributed constraint optimization problems (DCOPs) are a popular way of formulating and solving agent-coordination problems. It is often desirable to solve DCOPs optimally with m...
– This paper addresses the problem of resource allocation in a multiservice optical network based on an Overlapped-CDMA system. A joint transmission power and overlapping coeffic...

This paper is devoted to sequential decision making with Rank Dependent expected Utility (RDU). This decision criterion generalizes Expected Utility and enables to model a wider r...
In this paper, we study the problem of effective keyword search over XML documents. We begin by introducing the notion of Valuable Lowest Common Ancestor (VLCA) to accurately and ...
