A framework for task assignment in heterogeneous computing systems is presented in this work. The framework is based on a learning automata model. The proposed model can be used f...
Abstract. In order to escape from local optima, it is standard practice to periodically restart a genetic algorithm according to some restart criteria/policy. This paper addresses ...
Multi-agent systems are widely used to address large-scale distributed combinatorial applications in the real world. One such application is meeting scheduling (MS), which is deļ¬...
We propose and evaluate a model for controlling infection patterns deļ¬ned over rounds or real time in a gossipbased protocol using adaptive fanout. We model three versions of go...
Tertiary storage systems are used when secondary storage can not satisfy the data storage requirements and/or it is a more cost effective option. The new application domains requir...
