We introduce a new performance metric, called Load Balancing Factor (LBF), to assist programmers with evaluating different tuning alternatives. The LBF metric differs from traditi...
In this paper, we describe the application of a new type of genetic algorithm called the Structured Genetic Algorithm (sGA) for function optimization in nonstationary environments...
Recently Peer-to-Peer networks (P2P) have gained great attention and popularity. One key challenging aspect in a P2P resource sharing environment is an efficient searching algorit...
