An instance of the given problem is divided into easier instances of the same problem, which are solved recursively and then combined to create a solution to the original instance. Of course, divide and conquer is not suitable for every problem. A divide and conquer approach will only work if the problem is easily divided into a small number of easier sub-problems, and the solution to the entir...

Divide and (Iteratively) Conquer!

The Iterative Multi-Agent (IMA) Method works by breaking down a search problem into many sub-problems, each to be solved separately. Independent problem solving agents work on the sub-problems and use iteration to handle any interaction between the sub-problems. Each agent knows about a subset of the whole problem and cannot solve it all by itself. The agents, working in parallel, can use any m...
