Programming the Swarm

چکیده

Computing is rapidly moving away from traditional computers. Of the 8 billion computing units will be deployed worldwide this year, only 150 million are stand-alone computers [Tennenhouse2000]. Many programs in the future will run on collections of mobile processors interacting with the physical world and communicating over dynamic, ad hoc networks. We can view such a collection of devices as a swarm. As with natural swarms, such as a school of fish or an ant colony, the behavior of the swarm emerges from the simple behaviors of its individual members. The swarm is resilient to a small fraction of misbehaving members and to changes in the environment.

Solving Fractional Programming Problems based on Swarm Intelligence

This paper presents a new approach to solve Fractional Programming Problems (FPPs) based on two different Swarm Intelligence (SI) algorithms. The two algorithms are: Particle Swarm Optimization, and Firefly Algorithm. The two algorithms are tested using several FPP benchmark examples and two selected industrial applications. The test aims to prove the capability of the SI algorithms to s...

A Possibility Linear Programming Approach to Solve a Fuzzy Single Machine Scheduling Problem

This paper employs an interactive possibility linear programming approach to solve a single machine scheduling problem with imprecise processing times, due dates, as well as earliness and tardiness penalties of jobs. The proposed approach is based on a strategy of minimizing the most possible value of the imprecise total costs, maximizing the possibility of obtaining a lower total costs, and mi...

CREDIBILITY-BASED FUZZY PROGRAMMING MODELS TO SOLVE THE BUDGET-CONSTRAINED FLEXIBLE FLOW LINE PROBLEM

This paper addresses a new version of the exible ow line prob- lem, i.e., the budget constrained one, in order to determine the required num- ber of processors at each station along with the selection of the most eco- nomical process routes for products. Since a number of parameters, such as due dates, the amount of available budgets and the cost of opting particular routes, are imprecise (fuzz...
