Distributed Genetic Algorithm (DGA) is one of the most promising choices among the optimization methods. In this paper we describe DGAFrame, a flexible framework for evolutionary...
Experimental studies have shown that electing a leader based on measurements of the underlying communication network can be beneficial. We use this approach to study the problem ...
Specific applications like military or public emergency ones require secure group communication in ad hoc environments. The most suitable solution to provide the expected level of...
