— The efficient diagnosis of hardware and software faults in parallel and distributed systems remains a challenge in today’s most prolific decentralized environments. System-...
We propose an alternative algorithm for solving continuous review inventory model problems for deteriorating items over a finite horizon. Our interest focuses on the case of time...

In a distributed computing system (DCS), we need to allocate a number of modules to different processors for execution. It is desired to maximize the processor synergism in order...
Biogeography-based optimization (BBO) is a new evolutionary algorithm based on the science of biogeography. We propose two extensions to BBO. First, we propose blended migration. ...
This paper introduces a novel scheme of improving the performance of particle swarm optimization (PSO) by a vector differential operator borrowed from differential evolution (DE)....
