US 2006/0085558 A1 · Mobile hybrid software router

Abstract

A hybrid router for dynamical control systems is described. The mobile hybrid software router (MHSR) combines distinctive computational and mathematical techniques, including evolutionary computation (EC), probabilistic simulations (PS), machine learning and artificial neural networks (A-NNs), in order to solve unique problems encountered in an unknown environment in real time. Embodied in intelligent mobile software agents (IMSAs), the MHSR operates within a multi-agent system (MAS) to continually optimize system operation. The MHSR is applied to several major complex system categories. In one embodiment of the system, the MHSR is implemented in hardware, including continuously programmable field programmable gate arrays (CP-FPGAs), for perpetually reconfigurable evolvable hardware operation. Whether in application-specific or multi-functional mode, the MHSR is useful to groups of agents in intelligent systems for adaptation to uncertain environments in order to perform self-organization capabilities.
