We address the combinatorial optimization problem of finding the most influential nodes on a large-scale social network for two widely-used fundamental stochastic diffusion models...
Abstract— Thermal issues are a primary concern in the threedimensional (3D) integrated circuit (IC) design. Temperature, area, and wire length must be simultaneously optimized du...

In this paper, we propose an extended local search framework to solve combinatorial optimization problems with data uncertainty. Our approach represents a major departure from sce...
This paper analyzes bilateral multi-issue negotiation between selfinterested autonomous agents. The agents have time constraints in the form of both deadlines and discount factors...
