Existing privacy-preserving evolutionary algorithms are limited to specific problems securing only cost function evaluation. This lack of functionality and security prevents thei...
In this paper, we consider algorithms for distributed constraint optimisation problems (DCOPs). Using a potential game characterisation of DCOPs, we decompose six distributed DCOP...

Louisiana State University’s Biomedical Research Center is on a tight state funded budget, as are most state educational institutions. Resources are constantly being exhausted a...
Effective and efficient requirements negotiation is a key to the success of software development efforts. For large projects, this can be especially difficult to do effectively an...
Web Services are entailing a major shift of perspective in software engineering: software is used and not owned, and operation happens on machines that are out of the user control....
