Abstract

We present a new method to assign tasks, which are connected by time dependencies within a heterogeneous environment, (e.g., several resources communicating with each other). Our approach for task distribution uses an artificial hormone system, which is self-organizing and able to meet real-time constraints. Several enhancements to the artificial hormone system have been made, such as partial suppressing of tasks and distributed task termination.Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
