The resource allocation problem is a fundamental problem in distributed systems. In this paper, we focus on constructing nondominated (ND) local coteries to solve the problem. Dis...
The field of Genetic Algorithms has grown into a huge area over the last few years. Genetic Algorithms are adaptive methods, which can be used to solve search and optimisation pro...
The objective of this paper is to characterize classes of problems for which a greedy algorithm finds solutions provably close to optimum. To that end, we introduce the notion of k...
Our paper concerns optimal combinations of different types of reinsurance contracts. We introduce a novel approach based on the Mean-Variance-Criterion to solve this task. Two sta...

Domain knowledge is essential for successful problem solving and optimization. This paper introduces a framework in which a form of automatic domain knowledge extraction can be im...
