—This paper presents a new cooperative coevolving particle swarm optimization (CCPSO) algorithm in an attempt to address the issue of scaling up particle swarm optimization (PSO)...
Abstract. This article presents the C++ library vShark which reduces the intranode communication overhead of parallel programs on clusters of SMPs. The library is built on top of m...
This paper proposes a general solution model using agent technology in order to solve two critical open issues in the course timetabling problem: application-specific issues and d...
To facilitate the design of large-scale, self-adaptive systems, we have developed the Port-Based Adaptable Agent Architecture. This distributed, multiagent architecture allows syst...
