Resource management is a precondition to build reliable, extensible middleware and to host potentially untrusted user components. Resource accounting allows to charge users for the resource consumption of their deployed components, while resource control can limit the resource consumption of components in order to prevent denial-of-service attacks. In the approach presented here program transfo...

Federated learning (FL) has recently become one of the hottest focuses in wireless edge networks with ever-increasing computing capability user equipment (UE). In FL, UEs train local machine models and transmit them to an aggregator, where a global model is formed then sent back UEs. networks, training transmission can be unsuccessful due constrained resources, channel impairments, bandwidth li...

Recently, several real quantum devices have become available through the cloud. Nevertheless, they are expected to be very limited, in near term, number and quality of fundamental storage element, qubit. Therefore, software simulators only widely tools design test algorithms. However, representation computing components classical computers consumes a big amount resources. This work describes ho...

This work deals with robot-sensor network cooperation where sensor nodes (beacons) are used as landmarks for Range-Only (RO) Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM). Most existing RO-SLAM techniques consider beacons as passive devices disregarding the sensing, computational and communication capabilities with which they are actually endowed. SLAM is a resource-demanding task. Besides the t...

during the implementation, construction projects usually encounter situation that considerably affects the project scheduling and cost. this study aims at using an improved version of the harmony search algorithm (hsa) to schedule resource constrained construction projects. this model is formulated as a global optimization problem. it will determine the duration of each activity to minimize the...
