This work proposes a parallel memetic algorithm applied to the total tardiness single machine scheduling problem. Classical models of parallel evolutionary algorithms and the gene...
RND (Radio Network Design) is an important problem in mobile telecommunications (for example in mobile/cellular telephony), being also relevant in the rising area of sensor network...
In this work a cooperative, bid-based, model for problem decomposition is proposed with application to discrete action domains such as classification. This represents a significan...
Augmenting an existing network with additional links to achieve higher robustness and survivability plays an important role in network design. We consider the problem of augmenting...
In this paper we introduce a new general framework for set covering problems, based on the combination of randomized rounding of the (near-)optimal solution of the Linear Programm...
