Abstract. A Video-on-Demand system usually consists of a large number of independent video servers. In order to utilize network resources as efficiently as possible the overall net...
We present two hybrid Metaheuristics, a hybrid Iterated Local Search and a hybrid Simulated Annealing, for solving real-world extensions of the Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Wi...

When the search for a solution to a constraint satisfaction problem backtracks, it is not usually worthwhile to remember the assignment that failed, because the same assignment wil...
A heuristic technique that combines a genetic algorithm with a Tabu Search algorithm is applied to the Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP). The hybrid algorithm improves the result...
Most previous research into the job-shop scheduling problem has concentrated on finding a single optimal solution (e.g., makespan), even though the actual requirement of most prod...
