In this paper we address the physical parallelization of a very efficient genetic algorithm (GA) known as gradual distributed real-coded GA (GD-RCGA). This search model naturally...
SHARK is a novel concept and middleware service for search in peer-to-peer (P2P) networks. Rather than flooding a network like Gnutella or imposing numerical IDs on objects like d...
Scalability is a crucial factor in performance evaluation and analysis of parallel and distributed systems. Much effort has been devoted to scalability research and several metric...
To exploit the similarity information hidden in the hyperlink structure of the web, this paper introduces algorithms scalable to graphs with billions of vertices on a distributed ...
Abstract— The current approach in web searching, i.e., centralized search engines, rises issues that question their future applicability: 1) coverage and scalability, 2) freshnes...
