The Quantified Constraint Satisfaction Problem (QCSP) has been introduced to express situations in which we are not able to control the value of some of the variables (the universa...
In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for enforcing relational consistency on every set of k constraints of a finite Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP). This algorithm ope...

We are developing a new problem-solving methodology based on a self-organization paradigm. To realize our future goal of self-organizing computational systems, we have to study co...
Because of privacy concerns, agents may not want to reveal information that could be of use in problem solving. As a result, there are potentially important tradeoffs between main...
We provide a reformulation of the constraint hierarchies (CHs) framework based on the notion of error indicators. Adapting the generalized view of local consistency in semiring-ba...
