Abstract. Iterated local search (ILS) is a powerful meta-heuristic algorithm applied to a large variety of combinatorial optimization problems. Contrary to evolutionary algorithms ...
We review recent work on the Hierarchical-If-And-Only-If problem and present a new hierarchical problem, HIFF-M that does not fit with previous explanations for evolutionary diffi...
This paper describes the development of an evolutionary algorithm called Multipopulation Cooperative Coevolutionary Programming (MCCP) that extends Genetic Programming (GP) to sea...
SBSE techniques have been widely applied to requirements selection and prioritization problems in order to ascertain a suitable set of requirements for the next release of a syste...
