In this paper, we present an ant system algorithm variant designed to solve the job shop scheduling problem. The proposed approach is based on a recent biological study which showe...
The concept of virtual holonomic constraints is extended to the case of double support, which is characterized by a closed kinematic chain and redundancy in the state variables. An...
In this paper we derive a simpler form of Particle Swarm Optimiser (PSO) which still retains the key properties of the original model. We do so by progressively altering the origin...
