Apache Hadoop is a framework for managing large scale storage based datacenters whose primary job is to deliver data to clients. In such systems, the primary job is to associate each data request to a specific data replica among many available replicas. This assignment impacts the workload and power distribution across the storage servers. In this paper, we explore thermal and power aware task scheduling...
Today, medical equipment maintenance suffers from the same ailments that traditional medicine was suffering from before. Rapid advance of medical technologies has proven that traditional maintenance is no longer enough to ensure that equipment is getting the best possible maintenance. Medical equipment industry has been following empirical approaches and very little was done on mathematical modelling...
This paper presents a comparison of a differential evolution (DE) algorithm and a modified discrete particle swarm optimization (MDPSO) algorithm for generating optimal preventive maintenance schedules for economical and reliable operation of a power system, while satisfying system load demand and crew constraints. The DE, an evolutionary technique and an optimization algorithm utilizes the differential...
