The most important and interesting of the computing challenges we are facing are those that involve the problems and opportunities afforded by massive decentralization and disinte...
Finding an efficient configuration for cluster-based multi-tier Internet services is often a difficult task. Moreover, even a good configuration could become obsolete, depending o...
Particle filters (PFs) are Bayesian filters capable of modeling nonlinear, non-Gaussian, and nonstationary dynamical systems. Recent research in PFs has investigated ways to approp...
In this paper, we study the problem of an optimal assignment of a tree-structured context reasoning procedure onto the computation resources in a hostsatellites configuration. The...
In this paper, we describe the application of a new type of genetic algorithm called the Structured Genetic Algorithm (sGA) for function optimization in nonstationary environments...
