We consider the problem of preemptive scheduling on uniformly related machines. We present a semi-online algorithm which, if the optimal makespan is given in advance, produces an ...
Abstract. Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a new evolutionary computation technique. Although PSO algorithm possesses many attractive properties, the methods of selecting inert...
Point matching is the task of finding a set of correspondences between two sets of points under some geometric transformation. A local search algorithm for point matching is pres...
In this paper we develop models for and analyze several randomized work stealing algorithms in a dynamic setting. Our models represent the limiting behavior of systems as the numb...
Abstract The Examination Timetabling problem regards the scheduling for the exams of a set of university courses, avoiding the overlapping of exams having students in common, fairl...
