AGE-P: A Platform for Open Evolution

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 5199))

Abstract

Smart-appliances ensembles are highly dynamic device collections in which devices can leave and join at any time without notice. Due to the high system dynamics, such ensembles cannot employ standard evolutionary algorithms for their internal self-organization processes. Therefore, this paper proposes a new evolutionary framework, called the appliances-go-evolution platform (AGE-P). The simulation experiments indicate that AGE-P is able to properly cope with the peculiarities of smart-appliances ensembles and that it is thus a suitable option for their self-organization processes.
