Abstract. In order to escape from local optima, it is standard practice to periodically restart a genetic algorithm according to some restart criteria/policy. This paper addresses ...
In this communication Simulated Annealing and Genetic Algorithms, are applied to the graph partitioning problem. These techniques mimic processes in statistical mechanics and biol...
Abstract. This paper describes a hybrid grouping genetic algorithm for a multiprocessor scheduling problem, where a list of tasks has to be scheduled on identical parallel processo...
We discuss the use of normal distribution theory as a tool to model the convergence characteristics of di erent GA selection schemes. The models predict the proportion of optimal a...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) topology has significant influence on the performance, search efficiency and functionality, and scalability of the application. In this paper, we present a Gen...
