META-HEURISTIC ALGORITHMS FOR ADVANCED DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS Discover a collection of meta-heuristic algorithms for distributed systems in different application domains Meta-heuristic techniques are increasingly gaining favor as tools for optimizing distributed systems—generally, to enhance the utility and precision of database searches. Carefully applied, they can increase system effectiveness, streamline operations, and reduce cost. Since many of these techniques are derived from nature, they offer considerable scope for research and development, with the result that this field is growing rapidly. Meta-Heuristic Algorithms for Advanced Distributed Systems offers an overview of these techniques and their applications in various distributed systems. With strategies based on both global and local searching, it covers a wide range of key topics related to meta-heuristic algorithms. Those interested in the latest developments in distributed systems will find this book indispensable. Meta-Heuristic Algorithms for Advanced Distributed Systems readers will also find: Analysis of security issues, distributed system design, stochastic optimization techniques, and more Detailed discussion of meta-heuristic techniques such as the genetic algorithm, particle swam optimization, and many others Applications of optimized distribution systems in healthcare and other key??industries Meta-Heuristic Algorithms for Advanced Distributed Systems is ideal for academics and researchers studying distributed systems, their design, and their applications.

Measuring systems are an essential part of all automated production systems, they also serve to ensure quality of production or they are used to assure the reliability and safety in various areas. The same applies in principle likewise for fields of telecommunication, energy production and distribution, health care etc. Similarly no serious scientific research in the field of natural and technical sciences can be performed without objective data about the investigated object, which are usually acquired using measuring system. Demands on the speed and accuracy of measurement increase in all areas in general. These are the grounds for publishing this book.The book "Advanced distributed measuring systems - exhibits of application" offers 8 up-to-date examples of typical laboratory, industrial and biomedical applications of advanced measuring and information systems including virtual instrumentation. It arose based on the most interesting papers from this area published at IDAACS'2011 conference. However, single chapters include not only system design solution in wider context but also relevant theoretical parts, achieved results and possible future ways of design and development.Technical topics discussed in the book include:• embedded applications;• small distributed systems;• automotive distributed system;• distributed monitoring systems based on wireless networks;• synchronisation in large DAQ systems;• virtual instrumentation."Advanced distributed measuring systems - exhibits of application" is ideal for personnel of firms deals with control systems, automotive electronics, airspace instrumentation, health care technology etc. as well as academic staff and postgraduate students in electrical, control and computer engineering.

Advanced Distributed Consensus for Multiagent Systems contributes to the further development of advanced distributed consensus methods for different classes of multiagent methods. The book expands the field of coordinated multiagent dynamic systems, including discussions on swarms, multi-vehicle and swarm robotics. In addition, it addresses advanced distributed methods for the important topic of multiagent systems, with a goal of providing a high-level treatment of consensus to different versions while preserving systematic analysis of the material and providing an accounting to math development in a unified way. This book is suitable for graduate courses in electrical, mechanical and computer science departments. Consensus control in multiagent systems is becoming increasingly popular among researchers due to its applicability in analyzing and designing coordination behaviors among agents in multiagent frameworks. Multiagent systems have been a fascinating subject amongst researchers as their practical applications span multiple fields ranging from robotics, control theory, systems biology, evolutionary biology, power systems, social and political systems to mention a few. - Gathers together the theoretical preliminaries and fundamental issues related to multiagent systems and controls - Provides coherent results on adopting a multiagent framework for critically examining problems in smart microgrid systems - Presents advanced analysis of multiagent systems under cyberphysical attacks and develops resilient control strategies to guarantee safe operation
