In this paper we present a genetic algorithm-based heuristic for solving the set partitioning problem (SPP). The SPP is an important combinatorial optimisation problem used by man...
Augmenting an evolutionary algorithm with knowledge of its target problem can yield a more effective algorithm, as this presentation illustrates. The Quadratic Knapsack Problem e...
This paper presents a realtime music composition system based on a theme and variation approach. The system uses MIDI and allows up to sixteen instruments to play together. Each in...
Unit commitment is a complex decision-making process because of multiple constraints which must not be violated while nding the optimal or a near-optimal commitment schedule. This...
The technique presented here achieves simultaneous optimization of schedule time and data path component cost within a structured data path architecture, using a genetic algorithm...
