We present a series of related robust optimization models for placing sensors in municipal water networks to detect contaminants that are maliciously or accidentally injected. We f...

Recent statistical performance surveys of search algorithms in difficult combinatorial problems have demonstrated the benefits of randomising and restarting the search procedure. ...
The basic idea to defend in this paper is that an adequate perception of the search space, sacrificing most of the precision, can paradoxically accelerate the discovery of the mo...
In this paper we present arithmetic real-coded variation operators tailored for time slot and turn optimization on TDMA-scheduled resources with evolutionary algorithms. Our opera...
The paper compares two popular strategies for solving propositional satis ability, backtracking search and resolution, and analyzes the complexity of a directional resolution algo...
