Combining Tree Partitioning, Precedence, and Incomparability Constraints
The tree constraint partitions a directed graph into node-disjoint trees. In many practical applications that involve such a partition, there exist side constraints specifying requ...

An empirical analysis of the grouping genetic algorithm: the timetabling case
A grouping genetic algorithm (GGA) for the university course timetabling problem is outlined. We propose six different fitness functions, all sharing the same common goal, and look...

FIRE: An Integrated Trust and Reputation Model for Open Multi-Agent Systems
Trust and reputation are central to effective interactions in open multi-agent systems in which agents, that are owned by a variety of stakeholders, can enter and leave the system ...

Digital Evolution in Time-Dependent Fitness Landscapes
We study the response of populations of digital organisms that adapt to a time-varying (periodic) fitness landscape of two oscillating peaks. We corroborate in general predictions ...

Speed scaling of processes with arbitrary speedup curves on a multiprocessor
We consider the setting of a multiprocessor where the speeds of the m processors can be individually scaled. Jobs arrive over time and have varying degrees of parallelizability. A...
