Optimizing File Availability in Peer-to-Peer Content Distribution
Abstract— A fundamental paradigm in peer-to-peer (P2P) content distribution is that of a large community of intermittentlyconnected nodes that cooperate to share files. Because ...

Function Optimization with Coevolutionary Algorithms
Abstract. The problem of parallel and distributed function optimization with coevolutionary algorithms is considered. Two coevolutionary algorithms are used for this purpose and co...

Dynamic Backtracking for Distributed Constraint Optimization
We propose a new algorithm for solving Distributed Constraint Optimization Problems (DCOPs). Our algorithm, called DyBop, is based on branch and bound search with dynamic ordering ...

Minimization of Locally Defined Submodular Functions by Optimal Soft Arc Consistency
Submodular function minimization is a polynomially-solvable combinatorial problem. Unfortunately the best known general-purpose algorithms have high-order polynomial time complexi...
