Genetic algorithms (GAs) used in complex optimization domains usually need to perform a large number of fitness function evaluations in order to get near-optimal solutions. In rea...
In sensor networks, continuous query is commonly used for collecting periodical data from the objects under monitoring. This sort of queries needs to be carefully designed, in orde...
This paper discusses a new solution to university course timetabling problems. The problems that belong to the NP-hard class are very difficult to solve using conventional optimiza...
We propose in this paper a generic algorithm based on Ant Colony Optimization to solve multi-objective optimization problems. The proposed algorithm is parameterized by the number...
In this paper, an object-oriented unified optimization framework (UOF) for general problem optimization is proposed. Based on evolutionary algorithms, numerical deterministic meth...
