Evolutionary multi-agent systems (EMAS) are very good at dealing with difficult, multi-dimensional problems. Currently, research is underway to improve this algorithm, giving even more freedom to agents not only in solving the problem but also in making decisions on the behavior of the algorithm. One way is to hybridize this algorithm with other existing algorithms creating Hybrid Evolutionary Multi Agent-System (HEMAS). Unfortunately, such connections generate problems in the form of an unbalanced energy level of agents who have made the decision to use such an improvement. One of the solutions is the mechanism of redistributing the agents' energy in the form of an operator. The article presents several proposals of redistribution operators along with numerous experimental results.

Abstract-Mobile Computing and Mobile CloudComputing are the areas where intensive research is observed. The "mobility" landscape (devices, technologies, apps, etc.) evolves so fast that definitions and taxonomies do not catch up with so dynamic changes and there is still an ambiguity in definitions and common understanding of basic ideas and models. This research focuses on Mobile Cloud understood as parallel and distributed system consisting of a collection of interconnected (and virtualized) mobile devices dynamically provisioned and presented as one unified computing resource. This paper focuses on the mobile green computing cloud applied for parallel and distributed computations and consisting of outdated, abandoned or no longer needed smartphones being able to set up a powerful computing cluster. Besides showing the general idea and background, an actual computing cluster is constructed and its scalability and efficiency is checked versus the results obtained from the virtualized set of smartphones. All the experiments are performed using a dedicated software framework constructed in order to leverage the nolonger-needed smartphones, creating a computing cloud.
