Practitioners and researchers often refer to error rates or accuracy percentages of databases. The former is the number of cells in error divided by the total number of cells; the...
A novel hybrid genetic algorithm (GA) for jointly optimizing source and channel codes is presented in this paper. The algorithm first uses GA for the coarse search of source and ch...
For a given set of search engines, a search engine is redundant if its searchable contents can be found from other search engines in this set. In this paper, we propose a method t...
Performing efficient decentralized search is a fundamental problem in Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems. There has been a significant amount of research recently on developing robust sel...

We present an application of a multi-agent cooperative search approach to the problem of optimizing gas pipeline operations, i.e. finding control parameters for a gas transmission...
