Asynchronous Partial Overlay: A New Algorithm for Solving Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problems
January 1, 2013, 12:00am PST
Distributed Constraint Satisfaction (DCSP) has long been considered an important problem in multi-agent systems research. This is because many real-world problems can be represented as constraint...

Short and Long Supports for Constraint Propagation
January 1, 2013, 12:00am PST
Special-purpose constraint propagation algorithms frequently make implicit use of short supports - by examining a subset of the variables, they can infer support (a justification that a...
