Abstract. In many situations, a set of hard constraints encodes the feasible configurations of some system or product over which users have preferences. We consider the problem of...
Abstract. Caching data reduces user-perceived latency and often enhances availability in case of server crashes or network failures. DB caching aims at local processing of declarat...
Distributed Constraint Optimization (DCOP) is a general framework that can model complex problems in multi-agent systems. Several current algorithms that solve general DCOP instan...
—In this paper, we propose a low-complexity scheme for minimizing energy consumption in a clustered multirate CDMA sensor network with multiple receive antennas by jointly contro...
In this paper we propose a cultural algorithm, where different knowledge sources modify the variation operator of a differential evolution algorithm. Differential evolution is u...
