Abstract--We adapt methods originally developed in information and coding theory to solve some testing problems. The efficiency of two-stage pool testing of items is characterized ...
To address coordination and complexity issues, we formulate a grid task allocation problem as a bargaining based self-adaptive auction and propose the BarSAA grid task-bundle alloc...
We are interested in contributing to solving effectively a particular type of real-time stochastic resource allocation problem. Firstly, one distinction is that certain tasks may c...
Cooperative approaches have proved to be very useful in evolutionary computation due to their ability to solve efficiently high-dimensional complex problems through the cooperatio...
The paper describes a general glance to the use of element exchange techniques for optimization over permutations. A multi-level description of problems is proposed which is a fund...
