Virtual machines can greatly simplify wide-area discomputing by lowering the level of abstraction to the benefit of both resource providers and users. Networking, however, can be ...
Abstract. The paper focuses on the efficiency of the hybrid evolutionary algorithm (HEA) for solving the global optimization problem arising in electronic imaging. The particular v...
The general stochastic optimal control (SOC) problem in robotics scenarios is often too complex to be solved exactly and in near real time. A classical approximate solution is to ...
We present a probabilistic analysis for a large class of combinatorial optimization problems containing, e.g., all binary optimization problems defined by linear constraints and a...
When agents need to interact in order to solve some (possibly common) problem, resolving potential conflicts beforehand is often preferred to coordination during execution. Agents...
