چکیده

We report on extensions to a Java distributed computation library (JDCL) by Fritsche, Power, and Waldron, with application to a problem in the field of bioinformatics. Within our framework the system has been extended to support applications requiring a MIMD (multiple instruction, multiple data) architecture. The system has been evaluated through a DNA pattern matching application over a network of 90 PCs. The user is required to extend only two Java classes to completely configure a distributed computation.

Entropy-based Consensus for Distributed Data Clustering

The increasingly larger scale of available data and the more restrictive concerns on their privacy are some of the challenging aspects of data mining today. In this paper, Entropy-based Consensus on Cluster Centers (EC3) is introduced for clustering in distributed systems with a consideration for confidentiality of data; i.e. it is the negotiations among local cluster centers that are used in t...

Parallelizing Assignment Problem with DNA Strands

Background:Many problems of combinatorial optimization, which are solvable only in exponential time, are known to be Non-Deterministic Polynomial hard (NP-hard). With the advent of parallel machines, new opportunities have been emerged to develop the effective solutions for NP-hard problems. However, solving these problems in polynomial time needs massive parallel machines and ...

Hybrid Meta-heuristic Algorithm for Task Assignment Problem

Task assignment problem (TAP) involves assigning a number of tasks to a number of processors in distributed computing systems and its objective is to minimize the sum of the total execution and communication costs, subject to all of the resource constraints. TAP is a combinatorial optimization problem and NP-complete. This paper proposes a hybrid meta-heuristic algorithm for solving TAP in a ...
