We consider the problem of storing an ordered dictionary data structure over a distributed set of nodes. In contrast to traditional sequential data structures, distributed data st...
This paper presents a genetic algorithm (GA) with specialized encoding, initialization and local search genetic operators to optimize communication network topologies. This NPhard...
— This paper considers a network flow control problem where routing and input rates are controlled in a decentralized way across a network, to optimize a global welfare objectiv...
Niching is an important technique for multimodal optimization. Most existing niching methods require specification of certain niching parameters in order to perform well. These nic...
We present a formalism that is able to cope with search and congestion simultaneously. This formalism avoids the problem of simulating the dynamics of the search-communication proc...
