In this paper, we propose an integrated Genetic Algorithm with Hill Climbing to solve the matrix bandwidth minimization problem, which is to reduce bandwidth by permuting rows and ...
Constraint programming uses enumeration and search tree pruning to solve combinatorial optimization problems. In order to speed up this solution process, we investigate the use of...
Minimal Switching Graph (MSG) is a graphical model for the constrained via minimization problem — a combinatorial optimization problem in integrated circuit design automation. F...
In this paper, a novel discrete differential evolution (DDE) algorithm is presented to solve the permutation flowhop scheduling problem with the makespan criterion. The DDE algori...

In this paper, we present an approach that extends the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm to handle multiobjective optimization problems by incorporating the mechanism of...
