A parallel hybrid genetic algorithm-simulated annealing for solving Q3AP on computational grid
In this paper we propose a parallel hybrid genetic method for solving Quadratic 3-dimensional Assignment Problem (Q3AP). This problem is proved to be computationally NP-hard. The ...

A Comparative Study of Five Parallel Genetic Algorithms Using the Traveling Salesman Problem
Parallel genetic algorithms (PGAs) have been developed to reduce the large execution times that are associated with serial genetic algorithms (SGAs). They have also been used to s...

Empirical investigations on parallel competent genetic algorithms
This paper empirically investigates parallel competent genetic algorithms (cGAs) [4]. cGAs, such as BOA [21], LINCGA [15], D5 -GA [28], can solve GA-difficult problems by automati...

An Improved Greedy Genetic Algorithm for Solving Travelling Salesman Problem
—Genetic algorithm (GA) is too dependent on the initial population and a lack of local search ability. In this paper, an improved greedy genetic algorithm (IGAA) is proposed to o...
