Estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs) try to solve an optimization problem by finding a probability distribution focussed around its optima. For this purpose they conduct ...
A distributed multimedia information system allows users to access data of different modalities, from different data sources, ranked by various combinationsof criteria. In [6], Fa...

The N - body problem is to simulate the motion of N particles under the influence of mutual force fields based on an inverse square law. Greengard's algorithm claims to compu...

We present a combinatorial framework for the study of a natural class of distributed optimization problems that involve decisionmaking by a collection of n distributed agents in th...
We describe an algorithm for computing planar convex hulls in the self-improving model: given a sequence I1, I2, . . . of planar n-point sets, the upper convex hull conv(I) of eac...
