Abstract. We explore a new general-purpose heuristic for nding highquality solutions to hard optimization problems. The method, called extremal optimization, is inspired by self-or...

Abstract--In this paper, we present an efficient graph-based evolutionary optimization technique called evolutionary graph generation (EGG) and the proposed approach is applied to ...
Evolutionary Algorithms, including Genetic Programming (GP), are frequently employed to solve difficult real-life problems, which can require up to days or months of computation. ...
A cost-effective approach to building up scalable Videoon-Demand (VoD) servers is to couple a number of VoD servers together in a cluster. In this article, we study a crucial vide...
