The choice of an appropriate problem-solving method, from available methods, is a crucial skill for experts in many areas. We describe a technique for the automatic selection amon...
Proofs and empirical evidence are presented which show that a subset of algorithms can have identical performance over a subset of functions, even when the subset of functions is ...
: This paper describes the implementation of a meta-heuristic optimization approach, Tabu Search (TS), for Heat Exchanger Networks (HEN) synthesis and compares this approach to oth...
We designed and implemented a software system, called WebCrow, that represents the first solver for Italian crosswords and the first system that tackles a language game using the...
This paper deals with the Assembly Line Balancing Problem considering incompatibilities between the tasks with the aim of, first, minimizing the number of workstations and, then, ...
