Abstract- Simulated annealing (SA) is an effective general heuristic method for solving many combinatorial optimization problems. This paper deals with two problems in SA. One is ...
— In this paper, the concept of the ’robust arm configuration’ (RAC) is expanded using a mode shape compensator. This compensator improves the robustness of the arm configu...
The distributed development and maintenance paradigm for component delivery is fraught with problems. One wants a relationship between developers and clients that is autonomous an...
We present in this work a wide spectrum of results on analyzing the behavior of parallel heuristics for solving optimization problems. We focus on evolutionary algorithms as well ...
In order to obtain optimal visual quality while meeting the bit rate requirements, a video transcoder needs efficient rate-control with fine and dynamic adjustments. This paper pr...
