An Estimation of Distribution Algorithm (EDA) is proposed to approach the Hybrid Flow Shop with Sequence Dependent Setup Times and Uniform Machines in parallel (HFSSDST-UM) proble...
In this paper, we propose a new neighborhood structure based on the improvement graph for solving the Robust Graph Coloring Problem, an interesting extension of classical graph col...
