This paper deals with the generation of balanced incomplete block designs (BIBD), a hard constrained combinatorial problem with multiple applications. This problem is here formulat...
We have previously proposed a diffusion-type flow control mechanism as a solution for severely time-sensitive flow control required for high-speed networks. In this mechanism, each...
The problem of designing workforce shifts and break patterns is a relevant employee scheduling problem that arises in many contexts, especially in service industries. The issue is ...
Self-adaptation is used a lot in Evolutionary Strategies and with great success, yet for some reason it is not the mutation adaptation of choice for Genetic Algorithms. This poste...
A general method to design optimal redundant sensor network even in the case of one sensor failure and able to estimate process key parameters within a required accuracy is propos...
