The Train Timetabling Problem (TTP) consists in finding a train schedule on a railway network that satisfies some operational constraints and maximizes a profit function which c...
This paper deals with the evaluation of acyclic Boolean conjunctive queries in relational databases. By well-known results of Yannakakis [1981], this problem is solvable in polynom...
In multicriteria optimization, several objective functions, conflicting with each other, have to be minimized simultaneously. We propose a new efficient method for approximating t...
Abstract. The modularity of Service-oriented Architectures (SOA) allows to establish complex distributed systems comprising e.g., services, clients, brokers, and workflow engines. ...
We present PlasmidPL, a plasmid-inspired programming language designed for Genetic Programming (GP), and based on a chemical metaphor. The basic data structures in PlasmidPL are ci...
