This research applies the meta-heuristic method of ant colony optimization (ACO) to an established set of vehicle routing problems (VRP). The procedure simulates the decision-maki...
Abstract. Due to the lot of different Genetic Algorithm variants, encodings, and attacked problems, very little general theory is available to explain the internal functioning of ...
A Data Warehouse DW can be abstractly seen as a set of materialized views de ned over relations that are stored in distributed heterogeneous databases. The selection of views for...
