New multimedia embedded applications are increasingly dynamic, and rely on Dynamically-allocated Data Types (DDTs) to store their data. The optimization of DDTs for each target em...
This paper describes a Parallel Space Decomposition (PSD) technique for the Mesh Adaptive Direct Search (MADS) algorithm. MADS extends Generalized Pattern Search for constrained n...
Space constrained optimization problems arise in a multitude of important applications such as data warehouses and pervasive computing. A typical instance of such problems is to s...

An open problem in multiobjective optimization using the Pareto optimality criteria, is how to evaluate the performance of different evolutionary algorithms that solve multi– o...
The quadratic assignment problem (QAP) is a central problem in combinatorial optimization. Several famous computationally hard tasks, such as graph matching, partitioning, and the...
