Abstract— We consider the problem of estimating cascaded aggregates over a matrix presented as a sequence of updates in a data stream. A cascaded aggregate P ◦Q is defined by ...
The aggregation of conflicting preferences is a central problem in multiagent systems. The key difficulty is that the agents may report their preferences insincerely. Mechanism ...
Linear Ordering Problem (LOP) is a well know optimization problem attractive for its complexity (it is a NPhard problem), rich collection of testing data and variety of real world...
The creation of parameter study suites has recently become a more challenging problem as the parameter studies have become multi-tiered and the computational environment has becom...
