This paper discusses novel dedicated hardware architecture for hybrid optimization based on Genetic algorithm (GA) and Simulated Annealing (SA). The proposed architecture achieves ...
Existing index selection tools rely on heuristics to efficiently search within the large space of alternative solutions and to minimize the overhead of using the query optimizer ...
Two novel suboptimal algorithms for mutual exclusion in distributed systems are presented. One is based on the modi cation of Maekawa's grid based quorum scheme. The size of ...
Stochastic programming problems appear as mathematical models for optimization problems under stochastic uncertainty. Most computational approaches for solving such models are base...
By adapting to computations that are not so well supported by general-purpose processors, reconfigurable systems achieve significant increases in performance. Such computational sy...
