Abstract
This paper presents a new approach of the synchronous homogeneous concurrent propagation of competitive waves for the purpose of hyper-distributed hyper-parallel heuristic problem-solving. The concurrent algorithm, mechanism and their properties are given. In comparison with the traditional AI algorithms, the approach is featured by the knowledge-based problem-solving in the distributed parallel environment, the feasibility for hardware implementation and the various applications.
