We present a genetic algorithm for tackling a file assignment problem for a large-scale video-on-demand system. The file assignment problem is to find the optimal replication and a...

The design of effective neighborhood structures is fundamentally important for creating better local search and metaheuristic algorithms for combinatorial optimization. Significant...
A novel stochastic searching scheme based on the Monte Carlo optimization is presented for polygonal approximation (PA) problem. We propose to combine the split-and-merge based lo...
A new search algorithm for solving distributed constraint optimization problems (DisCOPs) is presented. Agents assign variables sequentially and propagate their assignments asynchr...
In this paper we address the problem of Least-Squares (LS) optimal FIR inverse-filtering of an convolutive mixing system, given by a set of acoustic impulse responses (AIRs). The ...
