Abstract. We present a Lagrangian-based heuristic LAHA for the Winner Determination Problem in Combinatorial Auctions. The algorithm makes use of the market computing power by appl...
Combinations of evolutionary based approaches with local search have provided very good results for a variety of scheduling problems. This paper describes the development of such a...
This paper deals with the challenging problem of counting the number of solutions of a CSP, denoted #CSP. Recent progress have been made using search methods, such as BTD [15], whi...
Recent progress in Distributed Constraint Optimization Problems (DCOP) has led to a range of algorithms now available which differ in their amount of problem centralization. Probl...
The dimensionality reduction problem has been widely studied in the database literature because of its application for concise data representation in a variety of database applica...
