In distributed combinatorial optimization problems, dynamic programming algorithms like DPOP ([Petcu and Faltings, 2005]) require only a linear number of messages, thus generating...
This paper presents a genetic algorithm (GA) with specialized encoding, initialization and local search genetic operators to optimize communication network topologies. This NPhard...
High-quality meshes are essential in the solution of partial differential equations (PDEs), which arise in numerous science and engineering applications, as the mesh quality aff...
An issue that is critical for the application of Markov decision processes MDPs to realistic problems is how the complexity of planning scales with the size of the MDP. In stochas...
We analyse a continued fraction algorithm (abbreviated CFA) for arbitrary dimension n showing that it produces simultaneous diophantine approximations which are up to the factor 2(...
