Applying metaheuristic techniques to search the space of bidding strategies in combinatorial auctions
Many non-cooperative settings that could potentially be studied using game theory are characterized by having very large strategy spaces and payoffs that are costly to compute. Be...

Boosting Systematic Search by Weighting Constraints
In this paper, we present a dynamic and adaptive variable ordering heuristic which guides systematic search toward inconsistent or hard parts of a Constraint Satisfaction Problem (...

Systematic Integration of Parameterized Local Search Techniques in Evolutionary Algorithms
Application-specific, parameterized local search algorithms (PLSAs), in which optimization accuracy can be traded off with runtime, arise naturally in many optimization contexts....

Advances in Local Search for Satisfiability
In this paper we describe a stochastic local search (SLS) procedure for finding satisfying models of satisfiable propositional formulae. This new algorithm, gNovelty+ , draws on th...
