The optimal state minimization problem is to select a reduced state machine having the best logic implementation over all possible state reductions and encodings. A recent algorit...
Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problems (DCSPs) provide a model to capture a broad range of cooperative multiagent problem solving settings. Researchers have generally propos...
Methods for solving Distributed Constraint Optimization Problems (DCOP) have emerged as key techniques for distributed reasoning. Yet, their application faces significant hurdles...
Asynchronous Partial Overlay (APO) is a search algorithm that uses cooperative mediation to solve Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problems (DisCSPs). The algorithm partitions ...
Recent work has demonstrated that treating resource reasoning separately from causal reasoning can lead to improved planning performance and rational resource management where inc...
