We introduce the concept of "minimal" search algorithm for a set of functions to optimize. We investigate the structure of closed under permutation (c.u.p.) sets and we c...
We consider complex scheduling problems that can be captured as optimization under hard and soft constraints. The objective of such an optimization problem is to satisfy as many h...
Abstract. In this paper, we examine the problem of choosing discriminatory prices for customers with probabilistic valuations and a seller with indistinguishable copies of a good. ...
This paper compares three common evolutionary algorithms and our modified GA, a Distributed Adaptive Genetic Algorithm (DAGA). The optimal approach is sought to adapt, in near rea...

This work proposes and evaluates improvements to previously known algorithms for redundancy elimination. Enhanced Scalar Replacement combines two classic techniques, scalar replac...
