A non-binary constraint ordering heuristic for constraint satisfaction problems
Abstract Nowadays many real problems can be modelled as Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs). A search algorithm for constraint programming requires an order in which variables ...

A Comparison of Evolutionary Methods for the Discovery of Local Search Heuristics
Abstract. Methods of adaptive constraint satisfaction have recently become of interest to overcome the limitations imposed on “black-box” search algorithms by the no free lunch...

A Value Ordering Heuristic for Local Search in Distributed Resource Allocation
Abstract. In this paper we develop a localized value-ordering heuristic for distributed resource allocation problems. We show how this value ordering heuristics can be used to achi...

Local Search Heuristic for Rigid Protein Docking
Abstract. We give an algorithm that locally improves the fit between two proteins modeled as space-filling diagrams. The algorithm defines the fit in purely geometric terms and...

A Heuristic Approach to Cost-Efficient Derived Horizontal Fragmentation of Complex Value Databases
Derived horizontal fragmentation is one of the main database distribution design techniques. Unlike primary horizontal fragmentation, the decision of derived horizontal fragmentat...
