This paper proposes a genetic algorithm (GA) with random immigrants for dynamic optimization problems where the worst individual and its neighbours are replaced every generation. I...
A self-organized approach to manage a distributed proxy system called Adaptive Distributed Caching (ADC) has been proposed previously. We model each proxy as an autonomous agent th...
Hierarchical clustering is used widely to organize data and search for patterns. Previous algorithms assume that the body of data being clustered is fixed while the algorithm runs...
