A Geographically Distributed Processing Environment for Intelligent Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
By addressing both the theoretical and practical issues of a geographically distributed application domain, we propose a way to construct a processing system using the computational aspects of a brain/mind system. The Alchemy distributed processing environment has been developed to support the geographical distribution of a set of intelligent applications running over the Internet. We focus here on the implementation details of the Alchemy architecture and how its performance has been demonstrated using a model of a geographically distributed information system. Using this model we compare our approach to more traditional approaches like distributed objects and mobile agents.

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...
متن کاملToward the Development of an Intelligent Tutoring System for Distributed Team Training through Passive Sensing
The development of intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) capable of supporting training experiences for geographically-distributed team members in shared virtual simulation environment presents considerable challenges. Even human tutors face challenges in developing team cohesion, coordinating roles and assessing contributions. Just as a human tutor might assess collective performance, a team ITS ...
متن کاملHierarchical Functional Concepts for Knowledge Transfer among Reinforcement Learning Agents
This article introduces the notions of functional space and concept as a way of knowledge representation and abstraction for Reinforcement Learning agents. These definitions are used as a tool of knowledge transfer among agents. The agents are assumed to be heterogeneous; they have different state spaces but share a same dynamic, reward and action space. In other words, the agents are assumed t...

Software agents are the autonomous, problem-solving computational entities capable of effective operation in dynamic and open environments. Intelligent agent is a type of software agent, autonomous in nature which observes and acts upon environment and performs some task at each host. Agent can also coordinate, reason, solve a problem, clone and merge with other agents. A Grid is a set of resou...
