چکیده

We consider the problem of searching a set of data repositories, each managed by an independent agent which is able to handle queries from users, as well as queries from peer agents. Given a query, an agent’s task is to find a closest match to the query over all the distributed databases. The agents search the distributed databases cooperatively by routing queries with each other. However, it is inefficient to route all queries to all agents. In this paper, we present strategies for routing queries efficiently between agents.

Distributed Search and Decision-Making using Cooperative Coevolutionary Agents

This paper presents a class of cooperative coevolutionary algorithms executing in a distributed information architecture consisting of coevolutionary agents, mobile software agents, and databases for superior network-efficient search and consequent distributed decision-making. In this approach to distributed decision-making, an objective function guides the concurrent search for logically inter...

Strategies for Selecting Communication Structures in Cooperative Search

Modeling environment is essential for agents to cooperate with each other in a distributed system. In this paper, we propose two strategies for selecting agents' communication structures in a cooperative search using their local histories as a model of their computational environment. Under the assumption of homogeneity of agents, an agent can select a proper communication structure by using a ...

Information Sharing among Heterogeneous Reusable Agents in Cooperative Distributed Search

Information sharing among heterogeneou~ ~geusable agents in cooperative distributed search systems can greatly affect the quality of solutions and the runtime efficiency of the system. In this paper, we first give a formal description of shareable information in systems where agents have private knowledge and databases and where agents are specifically intended to be reusable. We then present e...

The Impact of Fostering Learner Autonomy through Implementing Cooperative Learning Strategies on Inferential Reading Comprehension Ability of Iranian EFL Learners

Abstract The great shift of paradigm from teacher-centeredness to learner-centeredness has one major rationale in line with the definitions of autonomy, i.e., the capacity and willingness to act independently and in cooperation with others, so cooperation is looked upon as the manifestation of autonomy. In the present study, the researchers investigated the impact of training cooperative...
