A variety of hybrid genetic algorithms has been recently proposed to address the vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW), a problem known to be NP-hard. However, very few...
A novel evolutionary approach for the bin packing problem (BPP) is presented. A simple steady-state genetic algorithm is developed that produces results comparable to other approa...
—A cooperative coevolutionary algorithm (CCEA) is an extension to an evolutionary algorithm (EA); it employs a divide and conquer strategy to solve an optimization problem. In it...
Abstract This paper depicts and evaluates an evolutionary design process for generating a complex self-organizing multicellular system based on Cellular Automata (CA). We extend th...
In the past, several attempts have been made to deal with the state space explosion problem by equipping a depth-first search (DFS) algorithm with a state cache, or by avoiding co...
