: In this paper we propose an application of data mining methods in the prediction of the availability and performance of Internet paths. We deploy a general decision-making method...
– Constructive algorithms are effective methods for designing Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) with good accuracy and generalization capability, yet with parsimonious network str...
