Project managers aim at keeping track of interdependencies between various artifacts of the software development lifecycle, to find out potential requirements conflicts, to better...
In this paper we investigate an approach to provide approximate, anytime algorithms for DCOPs that can provide quality guarantees. At this aim, we propose the divide-and-coordinat...

The asymptotic distribution of estimates that are based on a sub-optimal search for the maximum of the log-likelihood function is considered. In particular, estimation schemes that...
Most problems studied in artificial intelligence possess some form of structure, but a precise way to define such structure is so far lacking. We investigate how the notion of pr...

This paper discusses novel dedicated hardware architecture for hybrid optimization based on Genetic algorithm (GA) and Simulated Annealing (SA). The proposed architecture achieves ...
