Network design involves several areas of engineering and science. Computer networks, electrical circuits, transportation problems, and phylogenetic trees are some examples. In gene...
Given a connected, weighted, undirected graph G and a bound D, the bounded-diameter minimum spanning tree problem seeks a spanning tree on G of lowest weight in which no path betw...
Starting from some simple observations on a popular selection method in Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs)--tournament selection--we highlight a previously-unknown source of inefficien...
The Reproductive Plan Language 2 (RPL2) is an extensible interpreted language for writing and using evolutionary computing programs. It supports arbitrary genetic representations,...
A major cost in executing queries in a distributed database system is the data transfer cost incurred in transferring relations (fragments) accessed by a query from different sites...
