In this paper we propose a novel message-passing algorithm, the so-called Action-GDL, as an extension to the Generalized Distributive Law algorithm (GDL) [1] to efficiently solve...
In this paper, we present an algorithm for scheduling of distributed data intensive Bag-of-Task applications on Data Grids that have costs associated with requesting, transferring ...
Abstract. The performance of consensus and atomic broadcast algorithms using failure detectors is often affected by a trade-off between the number of communication steps and the ...
This study describes an alternative concurrency approach in genetic algorithms. Inspiring from implicit parallelism in a physical chromosome, a vertical concurrency is introduced. ...
Local search techniques have been applied in optimization methods. The effect of local search to the memetic algorithms can make multimodal and non-linear problems easier to solve...
