We consider the problem of selecting an optimal set of sensors, as determined, for example, by the predictive accuracy of the resulting sensor network. Given an underlying metric ...

The query optimizer of a database system is confronted with two aspects when handling user-defined functions (UDFs) in query predicates: the vast differences in evaluation costs b...
Achieving weighted throughput maximization (WTM) through power control has been a long standing open problem in interference-limited wireless networks. The complicated coupling bet...
Given any collection of data cells in a data space X, consider the problem of finding the optimal partition of the data cells into blocks which are unions of cells. The algorithms...

Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is a metaheuristic used to solve combinatorial optimization problems. As with other metaheuristics, like evolutionary methods, ACO algorithms often sh...
