In mobile crowd computing (MCC), smart mobile devices (SMDs) are utilized as computing resources. To achieve satisfactory performance and quality of service, selecting the most suitable resources (SMDs) is crucial. The selection is generally made based on the computing capability of an SMD, which is defined by its various fixed and variable resource parameters. As the selection is made on different criteria of varying significance, the resource selection problem can be duly represented as an MCDM problem. However, for the real-time implementation of MCC and considering its dynamicity, the resource selection algorithm should be time-efficient. In this paper, we aim to find out a suitable MCDM method for resource selection in such a dynamic and time-constraint environment. For this, we present a comparative analysis of various MCDM methods under asymmetric conditions with varying selection criteria and alternative sets. Various datasets of different sizes are used for evaluation. We execute each program on a Windows-based laptop and also on an Android-based smartphone to assess average runtimes. Besides time complexity analysis, we perform sensitivity analysis and ranking order comparison to check the correctness, stability, and reliability of the rankings generated by each method.

This research focuses on an application-based network resource selection algorithm in integrated LTE-WLAN systems. First, we study the structure of the LTE/WLAN overlaid systems and then propose an approach to select the network on LTE and WLAN interfaces in a user equipment. In the study we will test network's behavior change with the change of number of new arrival nodes to our model with different quality of service (QoS) and type of service (ToS) settings when implementing the network selection algorithm in OPNET. A part of this algorithm works with fuzzy logic controller block which calculates the threshold needed for comparing data usage with the remaining free data for uplink with a cost effective aim. The procedure of calculating the threshold is also explained. This network selection algorithm, gives a better result in terms of QoS for real time applications, less delay variation for cellular network for uplink data transmission and uses the pre allocated cellular data (total data amount of download plus upload) as much as it can, avoiding extra costs.

The main stages of solving the problem of planning movements by mobile robots in a non-stationary working environment based on neural networks, genetic algorithms and fuzzy logic are considered. The features common to the considered intellectual algorithms are singled out and their comparative analysis is carried out. Recommendations are given on the use of this or that method depending on the type of problem being solved and the requirements for the speed of the algorithm, the quality of the trajectory, the availability (volume) of sensory information, etc.
