— We describe a solution procedure for a special case of the periodic vehicle routing problem (PVRP). Operation managers at an auto parts in the north of Spain described the opti...
This research applies the meta-heuristic method of ant colony optimization (ACO) to an established set of vehicle routing problems (VRP). The procedure simulates the decision-maki...
— The efficient diagnosis of hardware and software faults in parallel and distributed systems remains a challenge in today’s most prolific decentralized environments. System-...
This paper considers a relay-assisted bidirectional cellular network where the base station (BS) communicates with each mobile station (MS) using orthogonal frequency-division mult...
Simulation modeling has the capability to represent complex real-world systems in details and therefore it is suitable to develop simulation models for generating detailed operati...
