Inspired by Darwinian evolution, a genetic algorithm (GA) approach is one of the popular heuristic methods for solving hard problems, such as the Job Shop Scheduling Problem (JSSP...
In this paper we present a destructive lower bound for a number of resource constrained project scheduling (RCPS) problems, which is based on column generation. We first look at t...

Cloud computing is increasingly considered as an additional computational resource platform for scientific workflows. The cloud offers opportunity to scale-out applications from d...
Commitment-modeled protocols enable flexible and robust interactions among agents. However, existing work has focused on features and capabilities of protocols without considerin...
