DCOPolis was originally developed to provide a testbed for comparing Distributed Constraint Optimization (DCO) algorithms in a sterile environment. It was the authors' opinion (along with many in the DCO community) that existing metrics for comparing solution techniques did not adequately capture ... [More] the many intricacies inherent in such a problem. A byproduct of this testbed is a framework in which a single representation of a Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (DCOP) can be solved by a multitude of different solution algorithms, either in simulation or deployed on a live (possibly ad-hoc) network.
