In spatial graphs with a vast number of nodes, it is difficult to compute a solution to graph optimisation problems. We propose an approach using meta-level agents for multi-agents...
We consider the minimum cost spanning tree problem under the restriction that all degrees must be at most a given value k. We show that we can efficiently find a spanning tree o...

Abstract. This paper introduces a new algorithm, based on the concept of ejection chains, to effectively target vehicle routing problems with time window constraints (VRPTW). Ejec...
Abstract. To practically solve NP-hard combinatorial optimization problems, local search algorithms and their parallel implementations on PVM or MPI have been frequently discussed....
