General local research methods

Article Abstract:

The principle, implementation and selected literature of three currently applied heuristic methods, simulated annealing, tabu search and genetic algorithms, are illustrated in the context of meta-algorithms. They are characterized by two advantages: similarity to so-called natural optimization systems and presence of theoretical convergence results. Combination of the three methods is weighed for maximum results while comparisons are governed by easy usage, strength and dependability of parameter settings, solution quality and computational ability.

Local base station assignment with time intervals in mobile computing environments

Article Abstract:

The local station assignment (LSA) problems with data access costs are characterized using three parameters, namely number of distinct connect times, maximum number of preferred base stations specified by a user and maximum allowable load on any base station. The data access services are supplied to mobile users, who may connect and disconnect at any time, by many telecommunication service providers.
