We investigate a task insertion heuristic for oversubscribed scheduling problems, max-availability, that uses a simple estimate of resource contention to assign tasks to intervals...
One of the beauties of use cases is their accessible, informal format. Use cases are easy to write, and the graphical notation is trivial. Because of their simplicity, use cases a...
In this paper, we analyze two general-purpose encoding types, trees and graphs systematically, focusing on trends over increasingly complex problems. Tree and graph encodings are ...
Case-based reasoning (CBR) aims at using experience from the past in order to guide future problem solving rather than “starting from scratch” every time. We propose a CBR stra...
