Abstract--In the past few years, the problem of distributed consensus has received a lot of attention, particularly in the framework of ad hoc sensor networks. Most methods propose...
Many optimization problems require the satisfaction of constraints in addition to their objectives. When using an evolutionary algorithm to solve such problems, these constraints c...
LeSelect is a mediator system which allows scientists to publish their resources (data and programs) so they can be transparently accessed. The scientists can typically issue quer...
Many applied problems in domains such as military operations, manufacturing, and logistics require that entities change location under certain constraints. These problems are trad...
Decentralized MDPs provide powerful models of interactions in multi-agent environments, but are often very difficult or even computationally infeasible to solve optimally. Here we...
