The Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problem: Formalization and Algorithms
- IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering
, 1998
"... In this paper, we develop a formalism called a distributed constraint satisfaction problem (distributed CSP) and algorithms for solving distributed CSPs. A distributed CSP is a constraint satisfaction problem in which variables and constraints are distributed among multiple agents. Various applica ..."

An approach to Symmetry Breaking in Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problems
"... Abstract. Symmetry breaking in Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problems (DisCSPs) has, to the best of our knowledge, not been investigated. In this paper, we show that most symmetries in DisCSPs are actually weak symmetries, and we demonstrate how weak symmetry breaking techniques can be applied ..."

Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problems -- A Model and Application
, 1997
"... A canonical model for distributed constraint satisfaction problems (DCSP) is presented and algorithms for processing constraints on a DCSP are described. The central idea behind a constraint network that is given as a DCSP is the existence of large differences between the cost of message passing amo ..."

On communication in solving distributed constraint satisfaction problems
- In Multi-Agent Systems and Applications IV, Proc. 4th International Central and Eastern European Conference on Multi-Agent Systems, CEEMAS 2005
, 2005
"... Abstract. Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problems (DCSP) is a general framework for multi-agent coordination and conflict resolution. In most DCSP algorithms, inter-agent communication is restricted to only exchanging values of variables, since any additional information-exchange is assumed to ..."
