We present a hybrid solver (called GELATO) that exploits the potentiality of a Constraint Programming (CP) environment (Gecode) and of a Local Search (LS) framework (EasyLocal++ )....

The basic idea to defend in this paper is that an adequate perception of the search space, sacrificing most of the precision, can paradoxically accelerate the discovery of the mo...
The preservation of common components has been recently isolated as a beneficial feature of genetic algorithms. One interpretation of this benefit is that the preservation of commo...
Abstract. The utilization of pseudo-random proportional rule to balance between the exploitation and exploration of the search process was shown in Ant Colony System (ACS) algorith...
This paper presents HyFlex, a software framework for the development of cross-domain search methodologies. The framework features a common software interface for dealing with diff...
