A Harmony Search Based Algorithm for Detecting Distributed Predicates

Detection of distributed predicates (also referred to as runtime verification) can be used to verify that a particular run of a given distributed program satisfies certain properties (represented as predicates). Consequently, distributed predicates detection techniques can be used to effectively improve the dependability of a given distributed application. Due to concurrency, the detection of d...

A Novel Wireless Fire Alert System Using Harmony Search Algorithm

In today’s world,we are fazed by different types of emergencies in the indoor environment .One such emergency is fire outbreak. Thus, reliable and quick detection of fire is essential. Most prevalently used technology for this purpose is wireless sensor networks(WSN). A system is proposed that enables practical development of centralized cluster-based protocols supported by optimization methods...

A Novel Harmony Search Algorithm Based on Teaching-Learning Strategies for 0-1 Knapsack Problems

To enhance the performance of harmony search (HS) algorithm on solving the discrete optimization problems, this paper proposes a novel harmony search algorithm based on teaching-learning (HSTL) strategies to solve 0-1 knapsack problems. In the HSTL algorithm, firstly, a method is presented to adjust dimension dynamically for selected harmony vector in optimization procedure. In addition, four s...
