Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFeature Selection in Data-Mining for Genetics Using Genetic AlgorithmV. N. Rajavarman, S. P. RajagopalanWe discovered genetic features and environmental factors which were involved in multifactorial diseases. To exploit the massive data obtained from the experiments conducted at the General Hospital, Chennai, data mining tools were required and we proposed a 2-Phase approach using a specific genetic algorithm. This heuristic approach had been chosen as the number of features to consider was large (upto … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,627 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Scheduling Algorithm Based on Petri Nets and Simulated AnnealingRachida Hadiby Ghoul, Abdelhamid Benjelloul, Sihem Kechida, Hicham TebbikhThis study aims at presenting a hybrid Flexible Manufacturing System "HFMS" short-term scheduling problem. Based on the art state of general scheduling algorithms, we present the meta-heuristic, we have decided to apply for a given example of HFMS. That was the study of Simulated Annealing Algorithm SA. The HFMS model based on hierarchical Petri nets, was used to represent static … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 7,164 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Iterative Method for Algorithms Implementation on a Limited Dynamically Reconfigurable HardwareAbdellatif Mtibaa, Abdessalem B. Abdelali, Lotfi Boussaid, Elbey BourennaneIn this study we propose a framework and a combined temporal partitioning and design space exploration method for run time reconfigurable processors. Our objective is to help designers to implement an algorithm in limited FPGA area resources while respecting the execution time constraint. The algorithm to be implemented is represented by a task graph with different implementation alternatives (design points) … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 6,536 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybrid Optimize Strategy based QoS Route Algorithm for Mobile Ad hoc NetworksFu Peng, Zhang DeyunIt is very difficult to find feasible QoS (Quality of service) routes in the mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), because of the nature constrains of it, such as dynamic network topology, wireless communication link and limited process capability of nodes. In order to reduce average cost in flooding path discovery scheme of the traditional MANETs routing protocols and increase the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2006 · 6,546 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Harmony Search to Vehicle RoutingZong Woo Geem, Kang Seok Lee, Yongjin ParkA phenomenon-inspired meta-heuristic algorithm, harmony search, imitating music improvisation process, is introduced and applied to vehicle routing problem, then compared with one of the popular evolutionary algorithms, genetic algorithm. The harmony search algorithm conceptualized a group of musicians together trying to search for better state of harmony. This algorithm was applied to a test traffic network composed of one bus … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2005 · 12,460 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssisted History Matching for Petroleum Reservoirs in the Social Computing EraMichel Cancelliere, Dario Viberti, Francesca VergaThe exploitation strategy of hydrocarbon reservoirs can be technically and economically optimized only if a reliable numerical model of the reservoir under investigation is available to predict the system response for different production scenarios. A numerical model can be reasonably trustworthy after calibration only, which means the model has at least proved its ability to reproduce the historical behavior of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 24 Jul 2013 · 7,083 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrated Resource and Cost Management Scheme for Computational GridsV. K. Manavalasundaram, K. DuraiswamyProblem statement: Autonomous decision making and resource scheduling are the main objectives of market-life computational grid. Resource providers and consumers make the scheduling decisions with cost and incentive factors. The two objectives are to maximize the success rate of job execution and to minimize fairness deviation among resources. The challenge is to develop a grid-scheduling scheme that enables individual participants … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 7 Feb 2012 · 6,565 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProgressive Content-Sensitive Data Retrieval in Sensor NetworksBo Yang, Manohar MareboyanaProblem statement: For a sensor network comprising autonomous and self-organizing data sources, efficient similarity-based search for semantic-rich resources (such as video data) has been considered as a challenging task due to the lack of infrastructures and the multiple limitations (such as band-width, storage and energy). While the past research discussed much on routing protocols for sensor networks, few works have … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 6,845 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCustomized Privacy Preservation Using Unknowns to Stymie Unearthing Of Association RulesJ. Indumathi, G.V. UmaThe explosions of new data mining techniques has augmented privacy risks because now it is probable to powerfully coalesce and cross-examine massive data stores, accessible on the web, in the rummage around of earlier unidentified hidden patterns. Consecutively to make a overtly accessible system safe and sound, we must guarantee not only that private sensitive data have been trimmed out, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 7,117 accessesView PDFCite
