— Job-shop scheduling is one of the most difficult production scheduling problems in industry. This paper proposes an adaptive neural network and local search hybrid approach fo...
People search for people with suitable expertise all of the time in their social networks – to answer questions or provide help. Recently, efforts have been made to augment this...
We present GAB, a search algorithm for hybrid P2P networks, that is, networks that search using both flooding and a DHT. GAB uses a gossip-style algorithm to collect global statis...
