Guest Editorial: Special Issue on Parallel Algorithms, Scheduling and Architectures

Guest Editors: Xianchao Zhang, Wenxin Liang, Feng Xia
    Since applications of computing systems permeated in every aspects of our daily life, the efficiency of execution of parallel programs on distributed systems has become a critical issue in the research field of high-performance computing systems. In recent years, more and more researchers have recognized the fact that parallel algorithms, scheduling and architectures play an important role in improving the efficiency of computing systems, and hence continuously present their valuable research results in this field.
    In this special issue, we selected some excellent papers from the third International Symposium on Parallel Architectures, Algorithms and Programming (PAAP 2010), which was held in Dalian, China, December 18-20, 2010. In addition, we invited and selected some representative research papers in the broad area of parallel algorithms, scheduling and architectures.
    The paper titled "A Novel Differential Evolution with Uniform Design for Continuous Global Optimization" presents a uniform-differential evolution algorithm (UDE) which incorporates uniform design initialization method into differential evolution to accelerate its convergence speed and improve the stability.
    The paper titled "Leveraging 1-hop Neighborhood Knowledge for Connected Dominating Set in Wireless Sensor Networks" proposes an algorithm leveraging 1-hop neighborhood knowledge for connected dominating set, aiming to get a small connected dominating set, meanwhile, to minimize the consumption of energy and time.
    The paper titled “An Internet Traffic Identification Approach Based on GA and PSO-SVM" proposes an internet traffic identification approach which selects the best feature subset using Genetic Algorithm, and then calculate the correspondence weight of each feature selected by Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). In addition, the traditional SVM algorithm is optimized by PSO algorithm.
