We model budget-constrained keyword bidding in sponsored search auctions as a stochastic multiple-choice knapsack problem (S-MCKP) and design an algorithm to solve S-MCKP and the ...
—The first hitting time (FHT) plays an important role in convergence evaluation for evolutionary algorithms. However, the current criteria of the FHT are mostly under a hypothesi...
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...
This work presents a new approach to solve the location management problem by using the location areas approach. A combination of a genetic algorithm and the Hopfield neural netwo...
Abstract - This survey paper intends to provide a comprehensive coverage of the techniques that are pertinent to the processor-based implementation of H.264/AVC video codec, partic...
