Genetic algorithms (GAs) have recently become very popular by solving combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, we propose an extension of the hybrid genetic algorithm f...
The Unit Commitment Problem (UCP) is the task of finding an optimal turn on and turn off schedule for a group of power generation units over a given time horizon to minimize ope...
This paper proposes an incremental approach for building solutions using evolutionary computation. It presents a simple evolutionary model called a Transition model in which parti...

A Messy Genetic Algorithm is customized toflnd'optimal many-to-many matches for 2D line segment models. The Messy GA is a variant upon the Standard Genetic Algorithm in which...
Abstract— This paper presents a decentralized negotiation protocol for cooperative economic scheduling in a supply chain environment. For this purpose we designed autonomous agen...
