Beam-ACO algorithms are hybrid methods that combine the metaheuristic ant colony optimization with beam search. They heavily rely on accurate and computationally inexpensive boundi...
Two general-purpose metaheuristic algorithms for solving multiobjective stochastic combinatorial optimization problems are introduced: SP-ACO (based on the Ant Colony Optimization ...
How soon will firms form alliances with a platform provider? What factors impact the decision and the speed with which firms first move into partnerships with a platform provider ...
The success of stochastic algorithms is often due to their ability to effectively amplify the performance of search heuristics. This is certainly the case with stochastic sampling ...
A general-purpose, simulation-based algorithm S-ACO for solving stochastic combinatorial optimization problems by means of the ant colony optimization (ACO) paradigm is investigate...
