The main aim of randomized search heuristics is to produce good approximations of optimal solutions within a small amount of time. In contrast to numerous experimental results, th...

Theoretical models for the evaluation of quickly improving search strategies, like limited discrepancy search, are based on specific assumptions regarding the probability that a va...
This article surveys three techniques for enhancing heuristic game-tree search pioneered in the author's Othello program Logistello, which dominated the computer Othello scen...
Program-specific or function-specific optimization phase sequences are universally accepted to achieve better overall performance than any fixed optimization phase ordering. A ...
Abstract. In this paper we develop a localized value-ordering heuristic for distributed resource allocation problems. We show how this value ordering heuristics can be used to achi...
