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...
We propose a protocol for a local search and a genetic algorithm for the distributed traveling salesman problem (TSP). In the distributed TSP, information regarding the cost funct...
Recent work has introduced a simulation model of ecological processes in terms of a very simple Particle Swarm algorithm. This abstract model produced qualitatively realistic beha...
: This paper deals with the linear discrete-time sensor scheduling problem in unreliable communication networks. In case of the common assumption of an errorfree communication, the...
We consider several private database query problems. The starting point of this work is the element rank problem: the server holds a database of n integers, and the user an integer...
