Asynchronous parallel search by the parallel genetic algorithm
The parallel genetic algorithm (PGA) is a prototype of a new kind of a distributed algorithm. It is based on a parallel search by individuals all of which have the complete proble...

Probability Distribution of Solution Time in GRASP: An Experimental Investigation
A GRASP (greedy randomized adaptive search procedure) is a multi-start metaheuristic for combinatorial optimization. We study the probability distributions of solution time to a su...

Improved Bounds for Finger Search on a RAM
We present a new finger search tree with O(1) worst-case update time and O(log log d) expected search time with high probability in the Random Access Machine (RAM) model of comput...

Domain-dependent distributed models for railway scheduling
Many combinatorial problems can be modelled as Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs). Solving a general CSP is known to be NP-complete, so closure and heuristic search are usual...
