— Directional antennas can be useful in significantly increasing node and network lifetime in wireless ad hoc networks. In order to utilize directional antennas, an algorithm is ...
One of the main reasons for using parallel evolutionary algorithms (PEAs) is to obtain efficient algorithms with an execution time much lower than that of their sequential counter...
Connection Admission Control (CAC) is needed in ATM networks to provide Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees to real-time connections. This paper presents a CAC scheme based on a b...
Collaboration increasingly takes place in virtual communities using the Internet. These communities are socio-technical systems that tend to evolve strongly and become more comple...
Splay trees, a form of self-adjusting binary tree, were introduced by Sleator and Tarjan in the early 1980s. Their main use is to store ordered lists. The idea is to keep the tree...
