SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Addresses three major issues that arise in Distributed Constraint Optimization Problems (DCOP): efficient optimization algorithms, dynamic and open environments, and manipulations from self-interested users. This book introduces a series of DCOP algorithms, which are based on dynamic programming.
