Because of the increasing availability of multi-core machines, clus- ters, Grids, and combinations of these there is now plenty of computational power,but today's programmers are not fully prepared to exploit parallelism. ...

Motivated by the advent of powerful hardware such as SMP machines and execution environments such as Grids, research in parallel programming has gained much attention within the distributed computing community. There is a ...

Research in rats using preferences during exploration as a measure of memory has indicated that sleep is important for the consolidation of episodic-like memory, i.e., memory for an event bound into specific spatio-temporal ...

In this paper, we analyze the stability of networked control systems when parallel additive white noise (AWN) channels are considered. We assume that the parallel AWN channels are individually constrained in its signal to ...

Population based metaheuristic can benefit from explicit parallelization in order to address complex numerical optimization problems. Typical realistic problems usually involve non-linear functions and many constraints, ...
