The fundamental operation of dominance testing, i.e., determining if one alternative is preferred to another, is in general very hard for methods of reasoning with qualitative cond...
In this paper, we introduce a new crossover operator for the permutation representation of a GA. This new operator-Non-Wrapping Order Crossover (NWOX)--is a variation of the well-...
We present an evolutionary methodology that explores the evolution of network topology when a uniform growth of the network traffic is considered. The network redesign problem is ...
Genetic algorithms (GAs) have recently become very popular by solving combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, we propose an extension of the hybrid genetic algorithm f...
With the explosive growth of the Internet, businesses of all sizes aim on applying e-business solutions to their IT infrastructures, migrating their legacy business processes into ...
