Distributed University Timetabling with Multiply Sectioned Constraint Networks
Although timetabling has long been studied through constraint satisfaction based techniques, along with many alternatives, only recently work has been reported where distributed t...

Trajectories of goods in distributed allocation
Distributed allocation mechanisms rely on the agents' autonomous (and supposedly rational) behaviour: states evolve as a result of agents contracting deals and exchanging res...

Reinforcement learning for DEC-MDPs with changing action sets and partially ordered dependencies
Decentralized Markov decision processes are frequently used to model cooperative multi-agent systems. In this paper, we identify a subclass of general DEC-MDPs that features regul...

What Sensing Tells Us: Towards a Formal Theory of Testing for Dynamical Systems
Just as actions can have indirect effects on the state of the world, so too can sensing actions have indirect effects on an agent's state of knowledge. In this paper, we inve...
