Probability Distribution of Solution Time in GRASP: An Experimental Investigation
A GRASP (greedy randomized adaptive search procedure) is a multi-start metaheuristic for combinatorial optimization. We study the probability distributions of solution time to a su...

Implicit-explicit multistep finite element methods for nonlinear parabolic problems
We approximate the solution of initial boundary value problems for nonlinear parabolic equations. In space we discretize by finite element methods. The discretization in time is b...

A computational strategy exploiting genetic algorithms to recover color surface reflectance functions
—Information about the spectral reflectance of a color surface is useful in many applications. Assuming that reflectance functions can be adequately approximated by a linear comb...
