Internet search companies sell advertisement slots based on users' search queries via an auction. While there has been previous work on the auction process and its game-theor...
We present a new polynomial-space algorithm for solving Distributed Constraint Optimization problems (DCOP). The algorithm, called NCBB, is branch and bound search with modificati...
This paper presents a genetic algorithm (GA) with specialized encoding, initialization and local search genetic operators to optimize communication network topologies. This NPhard...
A randomized algorithm with stream splitting for design of heat exchanger networks is presented in this work. The algorithm has provisions for splitting any one of the process str...
