It has recently been shown that local search is surprisingly good at nding satisfying assignments for certain computationally hard classes of CNF formulas. The performance of basi...
The paper presents a new genetic local search algorithm for multi-objective combinatorial optimization. The goal of the algorithm is to generate in a short time a set of approxima...
We present a new hybrid algorithm for local search in distributed combinatorial optimization. This method is a mix between classical local search methods in which nodes take decis...
This paper reports on the development of a novel island model for evolutionary algorithms, which is intrinsically parallel and intended to better utilise resources and outlier sol...
OntoSearch, a full-text search engine that exploits ontological knowledge for document retrieval, is presented in this paper. Different from other ontology based search engines, O...
