There are several profits of distributed generator (DG) units which believed for improving the safety distribution power grids. However, these can be maximized by ensuring optimum sizing and positioning DG because an arbitrary location may adversely affect jeopardize grids could contribute to maximising loss degradation voltage profile. Therefore, approaches were suggested ensure position size ...

Both the Cooperative Computing research group at NTT and the Theory of Distributed Systems research group at MIT are carrying out research on theoretical foundations of distributed computing, with a focus on cooperative group activities in networks. Such group activities range from human social activities in cyber communities to powerful distributed applications involving data sharing and coope...

In parallel with the development of the theory of distributed cognition, the study of distributed computing has progressed rapidly. This research has both been driven by pragmatic insights into the practicalities of coordinating computational processes and resulted in formal theories of distributed systems. We believe that advances in distributed computation research can be used to refine under...

Artificial intelligence (AI) has witnessed a substantial breakthrough in variety of Internet Things (IoT) applications and services, spanning from recommendation systems to robotics control military surveillance. This is driven by the easier access sensory data enormous scale pervasive/ubiquitous devices that generate zettabytes (ZB) real-time streams. Designing accurate models using such strea...

The current explosion in sensor data has brought us to a tipping point in the intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance technologies . This problem can be addressed through the insertion of novel artificial intelligence-based methodologies. The scope of the problem addressed in this chapter is to propose a novel computational intelligence methodology, which can learn to map distributed het...

The advantages of ‘Distributed GIS’ have long been realised by GIS practitioners and researchers, for its strengths of system flexibility, reliability, scalability, processing efficiency and resources sharing. However, due to the complex network architecture and software structure, current distributed GIS (DGIS) still cannot fully accommodate distributed, heterogeneous and speedy development in...

DCSP (Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problem) has been a very important research area in AI (Artificial Intelligence). There are many application problems in distributed AI that can be formalized as DSCPs. With the increasing complexity and problem size of the application problems in AI, the required storage place in searching and the average searching time are increasing too. Thus, to use...

ATM technology promises a flexible, multi-service network that will support the broadband future. It will need to be robust and efficient in delivering quality of service and this will not be achieved by network protocols alone. Performance management systems will be needed. The flexibility required from future networks will also be required from their management systems. Approaches derived fro...
