In this paper we introduce a simple ant based algorithm for solving a copper mine planning problem. In the last 10 years this realworld problem has been tackled using linear intege...
Problem Frames are a systematic approach to the decomposition of problems that allows us to relate requirements, domain properties, and machine specifications. Having decomposed a...

Abstract. Stochastic optimization is a leading approach to model optimization problems in which there is uncertainty in the input data, whether from measurement noise or an inabili...
Arc Routing Problems on mixed graphs have been modelled in the literature either using just one variable per edge or associating to each edge two variables, each one representing ...
The p-center problem is to locate p facilities in a network of n demand points so as to minimize the longest distance between a demand point and its nearest facility. We consider ...
