As technology advances, 3D ICs are introduced for alleviating the interconnect problem coming with shrinking feature size and increasing integration density. In 3D ICs, one of the...
The assignment problem originally arising from parallel and distributed computing has been investigated intensively since the 70’s when Harold Stone proposed a method to solve i...
We consider the practical problem of task assignment in a server farm, where each arriving job is immediately dispatched to a server in the farm. We look at the benefit of cycle ...

We present a new probabilistic framework for finding likely variable assignments in difficult constraint satisfaction problems. Finding such assignments is key to efficient sea...

This paper presents a novel discrete population based stochastic optimization algorithm inspired from weed colonization. Its performance in a discrete benchmark, timecost trade-off...
