In a previous work we have proposed a hybrid Particle Swarm Optimisation/Ant Colony Optimisation (PSO/ACO) algorithm for the discovery of classification rules, in the context of d...
In recent decades, many meta-heuristics, including genetic algorithm (GA), ant colony optimization (ACO) and various local search (LS) procedures have been developed for solving a...
Abstract. In this paper we present an estimation of distribution particle swarm optimization algorithm that borrows ideas from recent developments in ant colony optimization. In th...
This paper introduces a Combinatory Optimization Problem (COP) which captures the performance in cooperation of a P2P Streaming Network, considered at the buffer level. A new famil...
We present a shared memory approach to the parallelization of the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) metaheuristic and a performance comparison with an existing message passing implemen...
