Nested Partitioning for the Minimum Energy Broadcast Problem
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...

Crossover: the divine afflatus in search
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 ...

Neighbourhood searches for the bounded diameter minimum spanning tree problem embedded in a VNS, EA, and ACO
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...

Multiple Variable Neighborhood Search Enriched with ILP Techniques for the Periodic Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows
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...

H-DPOP: Using Hard Constraints for Search Space Pruning in DCOP
In distributed constraint optimization problems, dynamic programming methods have been recently proposed (e.g. DPOP). In dynamic programming many valuations are grouped together i...
