DisCSP and DCOP Benchmarks in XCSP Format

As documented in an Appendix to the User Manual, FRODO comes with a suite of benchmark problem generators for the following problem domains:

  • graph coloring;
  • meeting scheduling;
  • random Max-DisCSPs;
  • combinatorial auctions/resource allocation;
  • distributed kidney exchange;
  • Nash equilibria in party games;
  • Vehicle Routing Problems.

Additionally, it is also possible to pass to FRODO benchmark problem instances generated by DisCHOCO 2.
