In this paper, we give a lower bound of (n(d-1)/2 ) on the quantum query complexity for finding a fixed point of a discrete Brouwer function over grid [1 : n]d . Our bound is near...
Scheduling algorithms used in compilers traditionally focus on goals such as reducing schedule length and register pressure or producing compact code. In the context of a hardware...

Optimal fractal coding consists of finding in a finite set of contractive affine mappings one whose unique fixed point is closest to the original image. Optimal fractal coding is ...
Local search (LS) algorithms are among the most powerful techniques for solving computationally hard problems in combinatorial optimization. These algorithms could be viewed as &q...
The aim of this research is twofold: Firstly, to model and solve a complex nurse scheduling problem with an integer programming formulation and evolutionary algorithms. Secondly, ...
