Knowledge base reuse through constraint relaxation
Effective reuse of Knowledge Bases (KBs) often entails the expensive task of identifying plausible KB-PS (Problem Solver) combinations. We propose a novel technique based on Const...

Exploring selection mechanisms for an agent-based distributed evolutionary algorithm
In this paper we propose an agent-based model of evolutionary algorithms (EAs) which extends seamlessly from concurrent single-host to distributed multi-host installations. Since ...

Exploiting hierarchical clustering for finding bounded diameter minimum spanning trees on euclidean instances
The bounded diameter minimum spanning tree problem is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem arising, for example, in network design when quality of service is of concern. ...
