We consider the problem of identifying a team of skilled individuals for collaboration, in the presence of a social network. Each node in the input social network may be an expert...
Recently, advances have been made in continuous, normal– distribution–based Estimation–of–Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) by scaling the variance up from the maximum–like...
Motivated by applications in batch scheduling of jobs in manufacturing systems and distributed computing, we study two related problems. Given is a set of jobs {J1, . . . , Jn}, w...
In Hell et al. (2004), we have previously observed that, in a chordal graph G, the maximum number of independent r-cliques (i.e., of vertex disjoint subgraphs of G, each isomorphic...
