Abstract. In this paper, we present a parallel tabu search (TS) algorithm for efficient optimization of a constrained multiobjective VLSI standard cell placement problem. The prima...
— Simulated Evolution (SimE) is a sound stochastic approximation algorithm based on the principles of adaptation. If properly engineered it is possible for SimE to reach nearopti...
In this paper, Simulated Evolution based goodness attributes are incorporated into Tabu Search and Genetic Algorithms to enhance performance as compared to canonical strategies. I...
