—In this paper, the multiple trajectory search (MTS) is presented for large scale global optimization. The MTS uses multiple agents to search the solution space concurrently. Eac...
—As more and more real-world optimization problems become increasingly complex, algorithms with more capable optimizations are also increasing in demand. For solving large scale ...
The challenge in shift scheduling lies in the construction of a set of work shifts, which are subject to specific regulations, in order to cover fluctuating staff demands. This pro...
