—Although network-wide flooding in reactive routing protocols like AODV [1] facilitates the discovery of optimal routes, they engender large control overhead. Some efficient floo...
In the emerging next-generation transport networks, called intelligent optical transport networks, DWDM-based optical components like add-drop multiplexers and optical cross conne...
The contemporary high-speed networks, e.g. the Internet and asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networks provide a convenient and cost-effective communication platform to carry the e...
Milgram’s experiment (1967) demonstrated that there are short chains of acquaintances between individuals, and that these chains can be discovered in a greedy manner. Kleinberg ...
In recent years the genetic algorithm community has shown a growing interest in studying dynamic optimization problems. Several approaches have been devised. The random immigrants...
