— Job-shop scheduling is one of the most difficult production scheduling problems in industry. This paper proposes an adaptive neural network and local search hybrid approach fo...
We present a homomorphous mapping that converts problems with linear equality constraints into fully unconstrained and lower-dimensional problems for optimization with PSO. This ap...
One of the difficulties in requirements negotiation is to determine a feasible and mutually satisfactory set of requirements for the developer and the user, a problem related to C...

A new algorithm for solving MAX-SAT problems is introduced which clusters good solutions, and restarts the search from the closest feasible solution to the centroid of each cluster...
— The architecture optimization of a three degrees of freedom (3-DOF) planar cable-driven parallel manipulator (CDPM) with multiple objectives has been implemented by means of GA...
