arXiv:2607. 25835v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Distributed constraint optimization problems (DCOPs) provide a popular framework for distributed decision making under limited communication, but many real-world instances are too large to solve monolithically.

The paper introduces a reinforcement‑learning‑guided evolutionary policy optimization framework for scheduling heterogeneous agile Earth observation satellites, addressing task selection, satellite assignment, and sequencing under diverse visibility windows, maneuvering constraints, energy use, and storage limits. It combines assignment‑based indirect encoding with decoder‑based cost evaluation to capture satellite‑dependent constraints while integrating task gain, energy savings, and load balance into a single utility metric. The resulting RLOSMEA algorithm uses reinforcement learning to select high‑level search operators, achieving higher weighted utility and more stable convergence than baseline metaheuristics across varied AEOS scenarios.

SimCRAFT is a model‑agnostic framework that distills remote sensing orchestration into a compact 7B‑scale model. It creates a large, constraint‑validated workflow planning corpus (SimRS‑14k) using a multi‑agent synthesis engine and a Mock Execution Engine, then fine‑tunes the model with Contextual Retrieval‑Augmented Fine‑Tuning (CRAFT) to reason analogically. Experiments show SimCRAFT‑7B outperforms open‑weight LLMs and rivals advanced closed‑source models, providing a lightweight, efficient baseline for autonomous remote sensing deployment.
