The edge dominating set (EDS) and edge cover (EC) problems are classical graph covering problems in which one seeks a minimum cost collection of edges which covers the edges or ve...
In case the objective function to be minimized is not known analytically and no assumption can be made about the single extremum, global optimization (GO) methods must be used. Pap...
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...

Abstract. Maximum likelihood (ML) is an increasingly popular optimality criterion for selecting evolutionary trees [Felsenstein 1981]. Finding optimal ML trees appears to be a very...
Abstract— Applications in complex systems such as the Internet have spawned recent interest in studying situations involving multiple agents with their individual cost or utility...
