We consider the problem of selecting the best system using simulation-based ordinal optimization. This problem has been studied mostly in the context of light-tailed distributions...
Abstract--Peer-to-Peer Realm (P2PRealm) is an efficient peer-topeer network simulator for studying algorithms based on neural networks. In contrast to many simulators, which emphas...

Simulated Evolution (SimE) is an evolutionary metaheuristic that has produced results comparable to well established stochastic heuristics such as SA, TS and GA, with shorter runti...
This paper presents a new approach for analyzing the performance of grid scheduling algorithms for tasks with dependencies. Finding the optimal procedures for DAG scheduling in Gr...
