An Estimation of Distribution Algorithm (EDA) is proposed to approach the Hybrid Flow Shop with Sequence Dependent Setup Times and Uniform Machines in parallel (HFSSDST-UM) proble...
With advancing semiconductor technology and exponentially growing design complexities, predictability of design tools becomes an important part of a stable top-down design process...
Electronic design automation is a field replete with challenging ? and often intractable ? problems to be solved over very large instances. As a result, the field of design automa...
The relative decline of single-threaded processor performance, coupled with the ongoing shift towards on chip parallelism requires that CAD applications run efficiently on paralle...
This article presents a robust EDA for global optimization with real parameters. The approach is based on the linear combination of individuals of two populations. One is the curr...
