Task Allocation

In a task allocation problem a set of tasks is distributed among a set of agents. Each agent has a cost for handling a particular set of tasks.
- Task-Oriented Domain (TOD) [1] is a subset of this.
- Can be solved with contract-net but global optima is only guaranteed using OCSM contracts (i.e. a fully-connected contract space). [2] [3] [4]
