McKee}, country = {}, institution = {}, abstract = {The work reported in this paper is motivated by the fact that there is a need to apply autonomic computing concepts to parallel computing systems. Advancing on prior work based on intelligent cores [36], a swarm-array computing approach, this paper focuses on 'Intelligent agents' another swarm-array computing approach in which the task to be executed on a parallel computing core is considered as a swarm of autonomous agents. A task is carried to a computing core by carrier agents and is seamlessly transferred between cores in the event of a predicted failure, thereby achieving self-ware objectives of autonomic computing. The feasibility of the proposed swarm-array computing approach is validated on a multi-agent simulator. }, journal = {International Journal of Computer and Information Engineering}, volume = {3}, number = {7}, year = {2009}, pages = {1764 - 1768}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/3751}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/31}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 31, 2009}, }
