This paper studies the issue of space coordinate change in genetic algorithms, based on two methods: convex quadratic approximations, and principal component analysis. In both met...

We design improved approximation algorithms for two variants of the ADM minimization problem. SONET add-drop multiplexers (ADMs) are the dominant cost factor in SONET/WDM rings. T...
Over the past few years, the research on evolutionary algorithms has demonstrated their niche in solving multiobjective optimization problems, where the goal is to nd a number of ...

We present new results on the problem of finding an enclosing rectangle of minimum area that will contain a given a set of rectangles. Many simple scheduling tasks can be modelled...
The Longest Common Subsequence (LCS) of two or more strings is a fundamental well-studied problem which has a wide range of applications throughout computational sciences. When the...
