This paper overviews recent work on ant algorithms, that is, algorithms for discrete optimization which took inspiration from the observation of ant colonies foraging behavior, an...
The problem considered in this paper consists in defining an assignment of frequencies to radio links, to be established between base stations and mobile transmitters, which minim...
The LOGFLOW parallel Prolog system is similar to the recent parallel database systems concerning its dataflow execution model and its capability of running on othing architectures...
With reference to an object type defining the two basic operations, read and write, we present solutions to the object sharing problem, classified according to the migration and/o...
Ant colonies, and more generally social insect societies, are distributed systems that, in spite of the simplicity of their individuals, present a highly structured social organiz...
