A Parallel Co-evolutionary Metaheuristic
In order to show that the parallel co-evolution of di erent heuristic methods may lead to an e cient search strategy, we have hybridized three heuristic agents of complementary beh...

Heuristic Selection for Stochastic Search Optimization: Modeling Solution Quality by Extreme Value Theory
The success of stochastic algorithms is often due to their ability to effectively amplify the performance of search heuristics. This is certainly the case with stochastic sampling ...

Scheduling optimization through iterative refinement
Scheduling DAGs with communication times is the theoretical basis for achieving efficient parallelism on distributed memory systems. We generalize Graham's task-level in a ma...

Characterization of a New Restart Strategy for Randomized Backtrack Search
We propose an improved restart strategy for randomized backtrack search, and evaluate its performance by comparing to other heuristic and stochastic search techniques for solving r...

Cycle time and slack optimization for VLSI-chips
We consider the problem of finding an optimal clock schedule, i.e. optimal arrival times for clock signals at latches of a VLSI chip. We describe a general model which includes al...
