— Estimation of network proximity among nodes is an important building block in several applications like service selection and composition, multicast tree formation, and overlay...
A family of recombination operators is studied in this work. These operators are based on keeping and using certain information about the past evolution of the algorithm to guide t...
—We consider a distributed shuffling algorithm for sharing data in a distributed network. Nodes executing the algorithm periodically contact each other and exchange data. The be...
Creating replicas of frequently accessed objects across a read-intensive network can result in large bandwidth savings which, in turn, can lead to reduction in user response time....
Distributed work teams are increasingly being implemented to enhance organizational flexibility and competitiveness in today's complex and rapidly changing work environment. ...
