In this paper, we develop heuristics for finding good starting points when solving large-scale nonlinear constrained optimization problems (COPs). We focus on nonlinear programmi...
Publicly accessible bug report repositories maintained by free / open source development communities provide vast stores of data about distributed software problem management (SWP...
Abstract-- The Maximum Parsimony problem aims at reconstructing a phylogenetic tree from DNA sequences while minimizing the number of genetic transformations. To solve this NP-comp...
Abstract. Even if the multi-agent paradigm has been evolving for fifteen years, the development of concrete methods for problem solving remains a major challenge. This paper focus...
We consider topology control problems where the goal is to assign transmission powers to the nodes of an ad hoc network so as to induce graphs satisfying specific properties. The ...
