This paper discusses the impact of the hierarchical master-worker paradigm on performance of an application program, which solves an optimization problem by a parallel branch and ...
Abstract. We have presented an optimal algorithm for minimal cost loop problem (MCLP), which consists of finding a set of minimum cost loops rooted at a source node. In the MCLP, t...
— Designing switching architectures for network routers and switches needs to consider limits imposed by the electronic technology, like small bandwidth×distance factors, power ...

Estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs) that use marginal product model factorizations have been widely applied to a broad range of, mainly binary, optimization problems. In ...
The algorithm designed in [12, 15] was the very first distributed algorithm to solve the mutual exclusion problem in complete networks by using a dynamic logical tree structure as...
