Pages : 224
Book Description
The IoT topology defines the way various components communicate with each other within a network. Topologies can vary greatly in terms of security, power consumption, cost, and complexity. Optimizing the IoT topology for different applications and requirements can help to boost the network’s performance and save costs. More importantly, optimizing the topology robustness can ensure security and prevent network failure at the foundation level. In this context, this book examines the optimization schemes for topology robustness in the IoT, helping readers to construct a robustness optimization framework, from self-organizing to intelligent networking. The book provides the relevant theoretical framework and the latest empirical research on robustness optimization of IoT topology. Starting with the self-organization of networks, it gradually moves to genetic evolution. It also discusses the application of neural networks and reinforcement learning to endow the node with self-learning ability to allow intelligent networking. This book is intended for students, practitioners, industry professionals, and researchers who are eager to comprehend the vulnerabilities of IoT topology. It helps them to master the research framework for IoT topology robustness optimization and to build more efficient and reliable IoT topologies in their industry.

Large-scale Graph Analysis: System, Algorithm and Optimization
Author: Yingxia Shao
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9789811539275
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
This book introduces readers to a workload-aware methodology for large-scale graph algorithm optimization in graph-computing systems, and proposes several optimization techniques that can enable these systems to handle advanced graph algorithms efficiently. More concretely, it proposes a workload-aware cost model to guide the development of high-performance algorithms. On the basis of the cost model, the book subsequently presents a system-level optimization resulting in a partition-aware graph-computing engine, PAGE. In addition, it presents three efficient and scalable advanced graph algorithms – the subgraph enumeration, cohesive subgraph detection, and graph extraction algorithms. This book offers a valuable reference guide for junior researchers, covering the latest advances in large-scale graph analysis; and for senior researchers, sharing state-of-the-art solutions based on advanced graph algorithms. In addition, all readers will find a workload-aware methodology for designing efficient large-scale graph algorithms.

Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 323
Book Description
The practical aspects of optimization rarely receive global, balanced examinations. Stephen Satchell's nuanced assembly of technical presentations about optimization packages (by their developers) and about current optimization practice and theory (by academic researchers) makes available highly practical solutions to our post-liquidity bubble environment. The commercial chapters emphasize algorithmic elements without becoming sales pitches, and the academic chapters create context and explore development opportunities. Together they offer an incisive perspective that stretches toward new products, new techniques, and new answers in quantitative finance. - Presents a unique "confrontation" between software engineers and academics - Highlights a global view of common optimization issues - Emphasizes the research and market challenges of optimization software while avoiding sales pitches - Accentuates real applications, not laboratory results

Meta-heuristic Algorithms for Optimal Design of Real-Size Structures
Author: Ali Kaveh
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319787802
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 172
Book Description
The contributions in this book discuss large-scale problems like the optimal design of domes, antennas, transmission line towers, barrel vaults and steel frames with different types of limitations such as strength, buckling, displacement and natural frequencies. The authors use a set of definite algorithms for the optimization of all types of structures. They also add a new enhanced version of VPS and information about configuration processes to all chapters. Domes are of special interest to engineers as they enclose a maximum amount of space with a minimum surface and have proven to be very economical in terms of consumption of constructional materials. Antennas and transmission line towers are the one of the most popular structure since these steel lattice towers are inexpensive, strong, light and wind resistant. Architects and engineers choose barrel vaults as viable and often highly suitable forms for covering not only low-cost industrial buildings, warehouses, large-span hangars, indoor sports stadiums, but also large cultural and leisure centers. Steel buildings are preferred in residential as well as commercial buildings due to their high strength and ductility particularly in regions which are prone to earthquakes.
