Abstract. This paper is concerned with a dynamic vehicle routing problem. The problem is dynamic in the sense that the time it will take to traverse each edge is uncertain. The pro...
We address the problem of optimizing the distribution of partially replicated databases over a computer network. Replication is used to increase data availability in the presence ...

This paper introduces AntNet, a novel approach to the adaptive learning of routing tables in communications networks. AntNet is a distributed, mobile agents based Monte Carlo syst...
A genome rearrangement scenario describes a series of chromosome fusion, fission, and translocation operations that suffice to rewrite one genome into another. Exact algorithmic ...
This research screens the tuning parameters of a combinatorial optimization heuristic. Specifically, it presents a Design of Experiments (DOE) approach that uses a Fractional Fac...
