Constrained continuous optimization is still an interesting field of research. Many heuristics have been proposed in the last decade. Most of them are based on penalty functions....
This paper focuses on the fragmentation problem produced in 2D run-time reconfigurable FPGAs when hardware multitasking management is considered. Though allocation heuristics can ...
Persuasive technologies for promoting physical fitness, good nutrition, and other healthy behaviors have been growing in popularity. Despite their appeal, the evaluation of these ...

In this work, we provide two heuristic algorithms for the matrix bandwidth reduction problem. The first is a genetic algorithm and the second uses node label adjustments. Experime...
Current evaluation functions for heuristic planning are expensive to compute. In numerous planning problems these functions provide good guidance to the solution, so they are wort...
