Attempts at classifying computational problems as polynomial time solvable, NP-complete, or belonging to a higher level in the polynomial hierarchy, face the difficulty of undecid...
A significant challenge in implementing the Theory of Constraints in the semiconductor industry is the complex and reentrant nature of the manufacturing process. Managing a constr...
In real-life temporal scenarios, uncertainty and preferences are often essential, coexisting aspects. We present a formalism where temporal constraints with both preferences and un...

Answering queries posed over knowledge bases is a central problem in knowledge representation and database theory. In databases, query containment is one of the important query op...
Resource allocation problems in multi-user systems, modeled as Nash bargaining (NB) cooperative games, are investigated under different constraints. Using the joint time division m...
