In a computational grid environment, a common practice is try to allocate an entire parallel job onto a single participating site. Sometimes a parallel job, upon its submission, ca...
In this paper, we introduce an adaptive evolutionary approach to solve the short-term electrical generation scheduling problem (STEGS). The STEGS is a hard constraint satisfaction...
Optimizing the pump-scheduling is an interesting proposal to achieve cost reductions in water distribution pumping stations. As systems grow, pump-scheduling becomes a very diffic...
In an open system, multi-agent computations must compete for resources required for satisfying their goals. We describe CyberOrgs, a hierarchical model for acquisition and control...
This paper shows a multisequential model to exploit OR parallelism on distributed memory systems. It presents an implementation of the incremental copy mechanism oriented to distr...
