This paper reports on the development of a novel island model for evolutionary algorithms, which is intrinsically parallel and intended to better utilise resources and outlier sol...
Memetic algorithms have become to gain increasingly important for solving large scale combinatorial optimization problems. Typically, the extent of the application of local search...
Abstract. This paper presents a Parallel Hybrid Evolutionary Metaheuristic for the Period Vehicle Routing Problem PVRP. The PRVP generalizes the classical Vehicle Routing Problem b...
Previous work on multiobjective genetic algorithms has been focused on preventing genetic drift and the issue of convergence has been given little attention. In this paper, we pre...
In this paper, we propose the island model parallel memetic algorithm with diversity-based dynamic adaptive strategy (PMADLS) for controlling the local search frequency and demons...
