Abstract. We adopt Benders’ decomposition algorithm to solve scenariobased Stochastic Constraint Programs (SCPs) with linear recourse. Rather than attempting to solve SCPs via a ...
A swarm-bot is a robotic entity built of several autonomous mobile robots (called s-bots) physically connected together. This form of collective robotics exploits robot interaction...
A hybrid evolutionary algorithm (EA) for the p-median problem consist of two stages, each of which is a steady-state hybrid EA. These EAs encode selections of medians as subsets o...
Many bio-inspired algorithms (evolutionary algorithms, artificial immune systems, particle swarm optimisation, ant colony optimisation, …) are based on populations of agents. Ste...
Abstract. The economic implications of network topologies are studied via a monopolist’s model of market networks originally proposed by Phan, et al. (2003). By embedding the mar...
