The (undirected) Node Connectivity Augmentation (NCA) problem is: given a graph J = (V, EJ ) and connectivity requirements {r(u, v) : u, v ∈ V }, find a minimum size set I of n...
The No-Free-Lunch theorems (NFLTs) are criticized for being too general to be of any relevance to the real world scenario. This paper investigates, both formally and empirically, ...
The problem of production and delivery lot-sizing and scheduling of set of items in a two-echelon supply chain over a finite planning horizon is addressed in this paper. A single ...
We present a new method of Logic-Based Genetic Programming (LBGP). Using the intrinsic mechanism of backtracking in Prolog, we utilize large individual programs with redundant clau...
