Abstract. Classical constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) provide an expressive formalism for describing and solving many real-world problems. However, classical CSPs prove to be...
—With the advent of new applications, one of the primary applications supported in downlink cellular systems is streaming video. QoS for streaming video entails data transmission...
— In this paper we develop a new dual decomposition method for optimizing a sum of convex objective functions corresponding to multiple agents but with coupled constraints. In ou...
Semiconductor fabs often offer manufacturing service of multiple priorities in terms of cycle time-based X-factor targets (XFTs) and fab production must be planned accordingly. Th...
The first part of the paper develops a novel, sortally-based approach to the problem of aspectual composition. The account is argued to be superior on both empirical and computati...
