Abstract. Achieving optimal battery usage and prolonged network lifetime are two of the most fundamental issues in wireless sensor networks. By exploiting node and data redundancy ...
Many combinatorial optimization problems such as the bin packing and multiple knapsack problems involve assigning a set of discrete objects to multiple containers. These problems ...
Abstract. This paper presents a new Memetic Algorithm (MA) designed to compute near-optimal solutions for the covering array construction problem. It incorporates several distingui...
The input to the minimum latency set cover problem (MLSC) consists of a set of jobs and a set of tools. Each job j needs a specific subset Sj of the tools in order to be processed...
In this paper we consider the weighted, capacitated vertex cover problem with hard capacities (capVC). Here, we are given an undirected graph G = (V, E), non-negative vertex weigh...
