Even though individual differences in navigation performance has been found in driving studies at behavioral level, few studies have explored the cognitive mechanisms of this individual difference at neural level with the technique of ERP (Event-related Potential). This study recruited two groups of navigators with good and poor navigation performance in a driving task and measured their P300 a...

This paper presents a novel generalized particle model (GPM) for the parallel optimization of enterprise computing*. Since enterprise computing always involves the resource allocation, task assignment, and behavior coordination, without loss of generality, the proposed GPM is devoted to the optimization of enterprise computing in the context of the resource allocation and task assignment in com...
