A key to improving at any task is frequent feedback from people whose opinions we care about: our family, friends, mentors, and the experts. However, such input is not usually ava...
Grid computing systems that have been the focus of much research activities in recent years provide a virtual framework for controlled sharing of resources across institutional bo...
This paper investigates cooperative search strategies for agents engaged in costly search in a complex environment. Searching cooperatively, several search goals can be satisfied w...
In this paper we define the notion of an f(k)-uniform parameterized exponential time scheme. We show that a problem can be solved in parameterized O(2o(f(k)) p(n)) time if and on...
Different solvers for computationally difficult problems such as satisfiability (SAT) perform best on different instances. Algorithm portfolios exploit this phenomenon by predicti...
