We present in this work a wide spectrum of results on analyzing the behavior of parallel heuristics for solving optimization problems. We focus on evolutionary algorithms as well ...
Real-time systems usually operate in an environment that changes continuously. These changes cause the performance of the system to vary during run time. An allocation of resource...
This paper studies the optimal placement of web files for en-route web caching. It is shown that existing placement policies are all solving restricted partial problems of the ...
Randomized incremental constructions are widely used in computational geometry, but they perform very badly on large data because of their inherently random memory access patterns...
We consider the problem of minimizing preference elicitation in efficient multiattribute auctions, that support dynamic negotiation over non-price based attributes such as qualit...
