This paper introduces a niching technique called GAS (S stands for species) which dynamically creates a subpopulation structure (taxonomic chart) using a radius function instead of...
Evolutionary algorithms applied in real domain should profit from information about the local fitness function curvature. This paper presents an initial study of an evolutionary...
The fastest learning automata (LA) algorithms currently available fall in the family of estimator algorithms introduced by Thathachar and Sastry [24]. The pioneering work of these ...
Abstract. Branch-and-Check, introduced ten years ago, is a generalization of logic-based Benders decomposition. The key extension is to solve the Benders sub-problems at each feasi...
Software transactional memory (STM) is a promising technique for controlling concurrency in modern multi-processor architectures. STM aims to be more scalable than explicit coarse...
