The resource availability in Grids is generally unpredictable due to the autonomous and shared nature of the Grid resources and stochastic nature of the workload resulting in a be...
The multiobjective Quadratic Assignment Problem (mQAP) is considered as one of the hardest optimization problems but with many real-world applications. Since it may not be possibl...
We present a novel approach for solving different design problems related to single products in multipurpose batch plants: the selection of one production line out of several avai...
