Comprehensive global garbage detection (GGD) in object-oriented distributed systems, i.e., GGD intrinsically able to detect distributed cycles of garbage, has mostly been addressed via graph tracing algorithms. Graph tracing algorithms must account for every live object in the system before any resource can actually be reclaimed which compromises both their scalability and robustness in a distributed environment. Alternative non-comprehensive approaches trade-off comprehensiveness for scalability and robustness under the assumptions that distributed cycles of garbage are rare and that all comprehensive algorithms are necessarily unscalable. This thesis contends instead that distributed cycle...

Intelligent Systems for Finance and Business Edited by Suran Goonatilake and Philip Treleaven A new generation of computing methods, commonly known as ‘intelligent systems’ are now beginning to be successfully applied in a variety of business and financial modelling tasks, and in many cases are outperforming traditional statistical techniques. Intelligent Systems for Finance and Business provides comprehensive coverage of the latest intelligent systems including genetic algorithms, neural networks, fuzzy logic, expert systems, rule induction, genetic programming, case based reasoning and intelligent hybrid systems. The authors clearly illustrate theories with practical case studies drawn...
