We consider the problem of estimating the tour length and finding approximation algorithms for the asymmetric traveling salesman problem arising from the disk scheduling problem. ...
This paper introduces a Combinatory Optimization Problem (COP) which captures the performance in cooperation of a P2P Streaming Network, considered at the buffer level. A new famil...
We consider the minimum cost spanning tree problem under the restriction that all degrees must be at most a given value k. We show that we can efficiently find a spanning tree o...
A frequent query in geospatial planning and decision making domains (e.g., emergency response, data acquisition, street cleaning), is to find an optimal traversal plan (OTP) that ...

This paper looks upon the standard genetic algorithm as an artificial self-organizing process. With the purpose to provide concepts that make the algorithm more open for scalabili...
