Abstract. We have presented an optimal algorithm for minimal cost loop problem (MCLP), which consists of finding a set of minimum cost loops rooted at a source node. In the MCLP, t...
— One of the major driving forces of Bacterial Foraging Optimization Algorithm (BFOA) is the reproduction phenomenon of virtual bacteria each of which models one trial solution o...
This paper presents a problem-independent framework that uni es various mechanisms for solving discrete constrained nonlinear programming (NLP) problems whose functions are not ne...
