In this paper we present the Threshold Join Algorithm (TJA), which is an efficient TOP-k query processing algorithm for distributed sensor networks. The objective of a top-k query...
In this paper, a new gene based adaptive mutation scheme is proposed for genetic algorithms (GAs), where the information on gene based fitness statistics and on gene based allele...
In distributed combinatorial optimization problems, dynamic programming algorithms like DPOP ([Petcu and Faltings, 2005]) require only a linear number of messages, thus generating...
We consider the setting of multiple collaborative agents trying to complete a set of tasks as assigned by a centralized controller. We propose a scalable method called“Assignmen...
Genetic algorithms are heuristic search algorithm used in science, engineering and many other areas. They are powerful but slow because of their evolutionary nature that mimics th...
