Abstract. This paper proposes Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm to discover classification rules. The potential IF-THEN rules are encoded into real-valued particles that...
Abstract--This paper proposes an analytical model to estimate the cost of running an affinity-based thread schedule on multicore systems. The model consists of three submodels to e...
Abstract. According to the No Free Lunch (NFL) theorems all blackbox algorithms perform equally well when compared over the entire set of optimization problems. An important proble...
This paper addresses the problem of fine-grained data replication in large distributed systems, such as the Internet, so as to minimize the user access delays. With fine-grained d...
Abstract. We are interested in the theoretical foundations of the optimization of conjunctive regular path queries (CRPQs). The basic problem here is deciding query containment bot...
