A genetic local search (GLS) algorithm, which is a combination technique of genetic algorithm and local search, for the unconstrained binary quadratic programming problem (BQP) is...
Abstract. We investigate the problem of enumerating schedules, consisting of course-section assignments, in increasing order of the number of conflicts they contain. We define th...
By the use of the GRIBB software for distributed computing across the Internet, we are investigating the obstacles and the potential for efficient parallelization of Branch and Bou...
Extremal optimisation (EO) is a relatively recent nature-inspired heuristic whose search method is especially suitable to solve combinatorial optimisation problems. To date, most o...
The challenge of maximizing the diversity of a collection of points arises in a variety of settings, including the setting of search methods for hard optimization problems. One ver...
