Network-analysis literature is rich in node-centrality measures that quantify the centrality of a node as a function of the (shortest) paths of the network that go through it. Exi...
A common problem in genetic programming search algorithms is destructive crossover in which the offspring of good parents generally has worse performance than the parents. Design...
Algorithms based on local search are popular for solving many optimization problems including the maximum satisfiability problem (MAXSAT). With regard to MAXSAT, the state of the ...
Among the many stages of a simulation study, debugging a simulation model is the one that is hardly reported on but that may consume a considerable amount of time and effort. In t...
—We propose a steepest descent method to compute optimal control parameters for balancing between multiple performance objectives in stateless stochastic scheduling, wherein the ...
