Research into ant colony algorithms for solving continuous optimization problems forms one of the most significant and promising areas in swarm computation. Although traditional an...
This paper addresses the various facets of emergent semantics in content retrieval systems such as Knowledge Sifter, an architecture and system based on the use of specialized agen...
The notion of referral networks, as presented in the work of Singh and Yolum, and their application to knowledge management, lacks two fundamental aspects; the relation of concept...
Abstract. In this work we extend a VNS for the periodic vehicle routing problem with time windows (PVRPTW) to a multiple VNS (mVNS) where several VNS instances are applied cooperat...
Several real world applications involve solving combinatorial optimization problems. Commonly, existing heuristic approaches are designed to address specific difficulties of the u...
