The problem of finding the broadcast scheme with minimum power consumption in a wireless ad-hoc network is NP-hard. This work presents a new hybrid algorithm to solve this problem...
The traditional GA theory is pillared on the Building Block Hypothesis (BBH) which states that Genetic Algorithms (GAs) work by discovering, emphasizing and recombining low order ...
We consider the Bounded Diameter Minimum Spanning Tree problem and describe four neighbourhood searches for it. They are used as local improvement strategies within a variable nei...
Abstract. In this work we extend a VNS for the periodic vehicle routing problem with time windows (PVRPTW) to a multiple VNS (mVNS) where several VNS instances are applied cooperat...
In distributed constraint optimization problems, dynamic programming methods have been recently proposed (e.g. DPOP). In dynamic programming many valuations are grouped together i...
