Abstract. The rapid evolution of real-time multimedia applications requires Quality of Service (QoS) based multicast routing in underlying computer networks. The constrained Steine...
Abstract. A Video-on-Demand system usually consists of a large number of independent video servers. In order to utilize network resources as efficiently as possible the overall net...
Abstract. In this work we extend a VNS for the periodic vehicle routing problem with time windows (PVRPTW) to a multiple VNS (mVNS) where several VNS instances are applied cooperat...
: Recently, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm has exhibited good performance across a wide range of application problems. A quick review of the literature reveals that re...
This paper presents operators searching large neighborhoods in order to solve the vehicle routing problem. They make use of the pruning and propagation techniques of constraint pr...
