Distributed Constraint Optimisation and Search Algorithms form a vital framework for addressing complex decision‐making and scheduling problems in multi-agent systems.

If you’ve ever completed a sudoku puzzle, then you’ve completed a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP). This type of problem is defined as a mathematical question where a number of constraints or ...

M.Sc. Paul Saikko defends his doctoral thesis Implicit Hitting Set Algorithms for Constraint Optimizatio n on Monday the 2nd of December 2019 at 12 o'clock noon in the University of Helsinki Exactum ...

This paper considers the design and analysis of algorithms for vehicle routing and scheduling problems with time window constraints. Given the intrinsic difficulty of this problem class, approximation ...

The graph model for conflict resolution, an analysis paradigm for strategic conflicts, has mainly relied on stability analysis for its conclusions. This paper proposes algorithms to apply another ...
