Cooperative Information Systems (CIS) often consist of applications that access shared resources such as databases. Since centralized systems may have a great impact on the system...
We propose a protocol for a local search and a genetic algorithm for the distributed traveling salesman problem (TSP). In the distributed TSP, information regarding the cost funct...
Abstract-In traditional cellular systems with fixed base stations the channel reuse pattern is static and deterministic. When the cell layout is dynamic, due to the mobility of bas...
We present an algorithm Pref-AC that limits arc consistency (AC) to the preferred choices of a tree search procedure and that makes constraint solving more efficient without chan...
Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are a search and optimization technique based on the mechanism of evolution. Recently, another sort of population-based optimization method called Estimat...
