To meet users’ growing needs for accessing pre-existing heterogeneous databases, a multidatabase system (MDBS) integrating multiple databases has attracted many researchers recen...
We present a distributed algorithm for determining optimal concurrent communication ow in arbitrary computer networks. Our scheme is applicable to a wide range of network ow applic...
Deceptive problems have been considered difficult for ant colony optimization (ACO) and it was believed that ACO will fail to converge to global optima of deceptive problems. Thi...
