A common approach to parallelizing simulated annealing to generate several perturbations to the current solution simultaneously, requiring synchronization to guarantee correct eva...
—A novel Fast Bacterial Swarming Algorithm (FBSA) for high-dimensional function optimization is presented in this paper. The proposed algorithm combines the foraging mechanism of...
Self-organizing systems could serve as a solution for many technical problems where properties like robustness, scalability, and adaptability are required. However, despite all the...
This paper proposes a novel evolutionary algorithm inspired by quantum computing, called a quantum-inspired evolutionary algorithm (QEA), which is based on the concept and principl...
Developing dispatching rules for manufacturing systems is a tedious process, which is time- and cost-consuming. Since there is no good general rule for different scenarios and ob...
