Specifically, we reveal that within FLe a solution in the presence of incomplete information approaches the one gained by complete infor-mation. It is also proved that the answers and their validities have a structural isomorphism within the same context. This rela-tionship is then used to prove the representation theorem that addresses the rationality of FLe-based reasoning. As a conse-quence of the developed theoretical description of FLe, we assert that in order to solve a problem, having complete information is not a critical need; however, with more information, the answers achieved become more specific. Furthermore, reasoning based on FLe has the advantage of being computationally less expensive in the analysis of a given problem and is faster.展开更多

Link contention is considered in the multiprocessor scheduling problem. A linear switching-state space-modeling paradigm is introduced to enable theoretical analysis from a system engineering perspective. Theoretical analysis of this model shows its robustness against changes in processing power and link failure. The proposed algorithm uses a fuzzy decision-making procedure to handle changes in the multiprocessor system. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm is illustrated by several random experiments and comparison against a recent benchmark approach. The results show up to 18% average improvement in makespan, especially for larger scale systems.展开更多
文摘We address a framework for the analysis of extended fuzzy logic(FLe) and elaborate mainly the key characteris-tics of FLe by proving several qualification theorems and proposing a new mathematical tool named the A-granule.

It is also proved that the answers and their validities have a structural isomorphism within the same context.
