An Adaptive Hybrid Genetic-Annealing Approach For Solving The Map Problem On Belief Networks, Manar Hosny May 2000

An Adaptive Hybrid Genetic-Annealing Approach For Solving The Map Problem On Belief Networks, Manar Hosny

Archived Theses and Dissertations

Genetic algorithms (GAs) and simulated annealing (SA) are two important search methods that have been used successfully in solving difficult problems such as combinatorial optimization problems. Genetic algorithms are capable of wide exploration of the search space, while simulated annealing is capable of fine tuning a good solution. Combining both techniques may result in achieving the benefits of both and improving the quality of the solutions obtained. Several attempts have been made to hybridize GAs and SA. One such attempt was to augment a standard GA with simulated annealing as a genetic operator. SA in that case acted as a …

Quality Of Service Management For Non-Guaranteed Networks, Tarek Madkour Jan 2000

Quality Of Service Management For Non-Guaranteed Networks, Tarek Madkour

Archived Theses and Dissertations

The increasing dominance of multimedia communication posed new requirements for the underlying systems. Multimedia data, formally called continuous media, has time constraints that impose real time limitations for their transmission. Certain levels of service, called Quality of Service (QoS), need to be considered when handling continuous media. The present work utilizes QoS concepts for networks that do not have inherent QoS support. The thesis aims at verifying the possibility of having QoS-controlled communication on non-guaranteed networks. A basic QoS architecture is designed where already existing QoS concepts are adapted to work with non-guaranteed networks. The architecture provides the facilities of …
