This paper presents an improved differential evolution (IDE) method for the solution of large-scale unit commitment (UC) problems. The objective of the proposed scheme is to determ...
Thermal hot spots and temperature gradients on the die need to be minimized to manufacture reliable systems while meeting energy and performance constraints. In this work, we solve...
Complete algorithms have been proposed to solve problems modelled as distributed constraint optimization (DCOP). However, there are only few attempts to address real world scenari...
This paper introduces a global constraint encapsulating a regular constraint together with several cumulative costs. It is motivated in the context of personnel scheduling problems...
— 1 Taking advantage of the independent fading channel conditions among multiple wireless users, opportunistic transmissions schedule the user with the instantaneously best condi...
