Network topology design problems find application in several real life scenarios. However, most designs in the past either optimize for a single criterion like delay or assume sim...
A new method, namely the Parallel Two-Level Hybrid (PTH) method, is developed to solve tridiagonal systems on parallel computers. PTH is designed based on Parallel Diagonal Domina...
Local search techniques have been applied in optimization methods. The effect of local search to the memetic algorithms can make multimodal and non-linear problems easier to solve...
Capability planning problems are pervasive throughout many areas of human interest with prominent examples found in defense and security. Planning provides a unique context for op...
