Given a universal constant k, the multiple Stack Travelling Salesman Problem (kSTSP in short) consists in finding a pickup tour T1 and a delivery tour T2 of n items on two distinc...
To solve real-world discrete optimization problems approximately metaheuristics such as simulated annealing and other local search methods are commonly used. For large instances o...
This paper deals with energy-aware real-time system scheduling using dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) for energy-constrained embedded systems that execute variable and unpredictable ...
Evaluation metrics play a critical role both in the context of comparative evaluation of the performance of retrieval systems and in the context of learning-to-rank (LTR) as objec...
