Abstract. Evaluations of distances or similarity measurements are very important in cooperative problem solving with multiple agents. Distance between problems is used by agents to...
In this paper, a parallel evolutionary multi-criteria optimization algorithm: DGA and DRMOGA are applied to block layout problems. The results are compared to the results of SGA an...
Generalized geometric programming (GGP) is an optimization method in which the objective function and constraints are nonconvex functions. Thus, a GGP problem includes multiple lo...
In the design of communication networks, robustness against failures in single links or nodes is an important issue. This paper proposes a new approach for the NP-complete edge-bic...
As distributed storage systems grow, the response time between detection and repair of the error becomes significant. Systems built on shared servers have additional complexity be...
