Abstract— We present a unifying framework for continuous optimization and sampling. This framework is based on Gaussian Adaptation (GaA), a search heuristic developed in the late...
Sensor networks can be viewed as large distributed databases, and SQL-like high-level declarative languages can be used for data and information retrieval. Energy constraints make ...
This paper considers the problem of selecting a subset of nodes in a two-hop wireless network to act as relays in aiding the communication between the source-destination pair. Opt...

Grid computing is a form of distributed computing that involves coordinating and sharing computing, application, data storage or network resources across dynamic and geographicall...
Although evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are widely used in practical optimization, their theoretical analysis is still in its infancy. Up to now results on the (expected) runtime ar...
