Combination of AI/OR methods is gaining a great deal of attention because many combinatorial problems especially in planning and scheduling areas can be solved by means of combined...
: In this paper, our aim is to propose a model that helps in the efficient use of an information system by users, within the organization represented by the IS, in order to resolve...
Multi-agent planning in stochastic environments can be framed formally as a decentralized Markov decision problem. Many real-life distributed problems that arise in manufacturing,...
We consider the following one- and two-dimensional bucketing problems: Given a set S of n points in R1 or R2 and a positive integer b, distribute the points of S into b equal-size ...
