The agent-oriented paradigm can be considered as a natural extension of the object-oriented (OO) paradigm. In this paper, a procedure using message flow graph (MFG) for regression testing of agent oriented software systems is proposed. This method however can be used when the interaction pattern of an agent changes. Furthermore a procedure for selection of modification-traversing regression test cases using execution trace is proposed. For illustration purpose, a multi agent air ticket booking system is implemented using JADE 3.5 and tested using our proposed methods.","PeriodicalId":184201,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Conference on Information Technology","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126618761","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Channel assignment or reassignment is an NP-hard problem and generally a heuristic approach is used for solving large sized problems. We have developed a ¿copy best available¿ heuristic in which we are using recursive search algorithm and concept of co-channel cells for the need of channel assignment and reassignment (arising from the situation of installation of new base stations for capacity expansion of a mobile communication network). The heuristic is proposed for the GSM (global system for mobile communication) environment. We try to achieve optimal channel assignment and reassignment by not allowing the co-channel interference in the neighboring cells as a hard constraint. Computational results show that our heuristic approach is quite simple and strong. It finds a near optimal solution to the most test problems with reasonable time bound as well as other constraints.","PeriodicalId":184201,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Conference on Information Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129888124","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Protein sequence alignment is in general given more importance than DNA sequence alignment, and protein sequence alignment methods can usually be used with little modification for DNA sequences as well. However, alignment methods specific to DNA sequence alignment using sequence specific information are highly desirable. Most existing DNA alignment programs routinely use the common match/mismatch scoring scheme. Recently, an iterative alignment scheme using sequence-specific transition-transversion ratio was shown to be better than using a simple match/mismatch scoring scheme. In this paper, we present a modification to the iterative approach by incorporating in it the use of multiple parameter sets. Preliminary experiments indicate that using multiple parameter sets gives significantly better performance than using a single parameter set, and than using a simple match/mismatch scoring scheme. Sequence specific scoring matrices have been shown to be highly successful for protein alignment over the last decade, and the current work should be a significant step in the direction of using sequence specific substitution matrices for DNA sequences.","PeriodicalId":184201,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Conference on Information Technology","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114628301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we propose one such routing protocol, called M-OLSR, which is a variant of OLSR, a traditional link-state protocol developed to meet the requirements of mobile adhoc networks MANETs. Our approach improves the throughput and packet delivery ratio, while minimizing routing overhead and delay, by choosing a stable path for packet forwarding through static routers. Simulation results demonstrate that, for WMNs, the M-OLSR outperforms OLSR in terms of throughput, packet delivery ratio, and routing overhead.","PeriodicalId":184201,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Conference on Information Technology","volume":"90 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114707614","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
