The interplay between the mutation operator and the selection mechanism plays a fundamental role in the behaviour of evolutionary algorithms (EAs). However, this interplay is stil...
— Wireless routers equipped with smart antennas are capable of forming beams to neighboring devices to transmit/receive multiple packets simultaneously, hence achieving high netw...
In this paper we develop a heuristic algorithm, based on Scatter Search, for project scheduling problems under partially renewable resources. This new type of resource can be view...
A contract algorithm is an algorithm which is given, as part of its input, a specified amount of allowable computation time. In contrast, interruptible algorithms may be interrupt...
: Several polling algorithms have been proposed to overcome the slot wastage problem due to the exchange of POLL or NULL packets in the case of no data to transmit. However, most o...
