Selecting an optimum maintenance policy independent of other parameters of the production system does not always yield the overall optimum operating conditions. For instance, high...
Abstract. Constructive methods obtain solutions to constraint satisfaction problem instances by iteratively extending consistent partial assignments. In this research, we study the...

The conjugacy search problem in a group G is the problem of recovering an x G from given g G and h = x-1 gx. This problem is in the core of several recently suggested public key ...
Abstract. A Greedy Randomized Adaptive Search Procedure (GRASP) is a randomized heuristic that has produced high quality solutions for a wide range of combinatorial optimization pr...

Abstract— Meta-heuristic optimization approaches are commonly applied to many discrete optimization problems. Many of these optimization approaches are based on a local search op...
