This paper addresses the question of allocating computational resources among a set of algorithms in order to achieve the best performance on a scheduling problem instance. Our pr...
We present a new propagator achieving bound consistency for the INTER-DISTANCE constraint. This constraint ensures that, among a set of variables X1, . . . , Xn, the difference be...
: Two main problems arise in modelling data warehouse structures. The first consists in establishing an adequate representation of dimensions in order to facilitate and to control ...
Local search algorithms have been very successful for solving constraint satisfaction problems (CSP). However, a major weakness has been that local search is unable to detect unso...
Evolutionary computation is a useful technique for learning behaviors in multiagent systems. Among the several types of evolutionary computation, one natural and popular method is...
