A Hybrid Algorithm for Processor Scheduling Using Game Theory Variants
Abstract: This study proposes a novel hybrid algorithm for processor scheduling in modern operating systems, integrating the strengths of traditional scheduling methods with game theory variants. Traditional schedulers often struggle to adapt to dynamic workload changes, leading to suboptimal performance. Our hybrid approach addresses this by treating processes as "players" in a game, where the "payoff" is CPU time. A base scheduler (e.g., Weighted Fair Queuing, Earliest Deadline First) provides a …

Radial Basis Function Neural Networks for Rainfall-Runoff Modeling
Abstract: Rainfall-runoff process is purely nonlinear and varies spatially as well as temporally. Any hydrological model requires many parameters which represent different components of the process. Availability of all the parameters is difficult for any catchment and probabilistic generation of such type of data is impossible. Under such circumstances, artificial neural networks (ANNs) have proven to be a better tool to model the rainfall-runoff process with minimum available data. The present …
