Unpredictability in the running time of complete search procedures can often be explained by the phenomenon of "heavy-tailed cost distributions", meaning that at any tim...
Current explanation-based generalization (EBG) techniques can perform badly when the problem being solved involves recursion. Often an infinite series of learned concepts are gene...
Our previous work has introduced a hyperheuristic (HH) approach based on Genetic Programming (GP). There, GP employs usergiven languages where domain-specific local heuristics ar...
The landscape formalism unites a finite candidate solution set to a neighborhood topology and an objective function. This construct can be used to model the behavior of local sea...
This paper describes the study conducted to design and evaluate a two-level on-line scheduler to dynamically schedule a stream of sequential and multi-threaded batch jobs on large...
