Cuckoo optimization Algorithm (COA) is employed for the optimization of linear and nonuniform circular antenna arrays. COA is a novel nature inspired computing algorithm which is motivated by the life of Cuckoo. Like other nature-inspired algorithms, COA is also a population-based method and uses a population of solutions to proceed to the global solution. The method of COA is used to determine...

Several hardware-based pattern matching engines for network intrusion/prevention detection systems (NIDS/NIPSs) can achieve high throughput with less hardware resources. However, their flexibility to update new patterns is limited and still challenging. This paper describes a PAttern Matching Engine with Limited-time updAte (PAMELA) engine using a recently proposed hashing algorithm called Cuck...

The common cuckoo, Cuculus canorus, is a brood parasite that monopolizes parental care of its host species: soon after hatching, the chicks remove the host offspring. Although cuckoo chicks trick their foster parents into providing enough food, it is unknown whether cuckoo begging behaviour represents an advantage over that of the host chicks in a hypothetical competitive scenario. We studied t...

Although cuckoo hashing has significant applications in both theoretical and practical settings, a relevant downside is that it requires lookups to multiple locations. In many settings, where lookups are expensive, cuckoo hashing becomes a less compelling alternative. One such standard setting is when memory is arranged in large pages, and a major cost is the number of page accesses. We propose...

This paper proposes an extension to approach proposed in [13] for image enhancement using a combination of fuzzy logic technique and bio-inspired optimization algorithm. The transformation of the image data from RGB to HSV space has been done without altering HUE information. The image has been categorized into three regions with well tuned membership functions: underexposed, overexposed and mi...

In this paper, the metaheuristics algorithm Cuckoo Search (CS), is adapted and applied for a model parameter identification of an E. coli fed-batch cultivation process. The dynamics of bacteria growth and substrate (glucose) utilization is described by a system of ordinary nonlinear differential equations. Using real experimental data set from an E. coli MC4110 fed-batch cultivation process a p...

Hash tables are ubiquitous in computer science for efficient access to large datasets. However, there is always a need for approaches that offer compact memory utilisation without substantial degradation of lookup performance. Cuckoo hashing is an efficient technique of creating hash tables with high space utilisation and offer a guaranteed constant access time. We are given n locations and m i...

Interest in multimodal optimization is expanding rapidly, since many practical engineering problems demand the localization of multiple optima within a search space. On the other hand, the cuckoo search (CS) algorithm is a simple and effective global optimization algorithm which can not be directly applied to solve multimodal optimization problems. This paper proposes a new multimodal optimizat...
