In this paper we introduce a new algorithm for computing near optimal schedules for task graph problems. In contrast to conventional approaches for solving those scheduling proble...
Abstract. The paper presents a new distributed Multilevel Ant Stigmergy Algorithm (MASA) for minimizing the power losses in an electric motor by optimizing the independent geometri...
Memetic algorithms have become to gain increasingly important for solving large scale combinatorial optimization problems. Typically, the extent of the application of local search...
Over the last few years, more and more heuristic decision making techniques have been inspired by nature, e.g. evolutionary algorithms, ant colony optimisation and simulated annea...
