Various applications of spectral techniques for enhancing graph bisection in genetic algorithms are investigated. Several enhancements to a genetic algorithm for graph bisection a...
In this paper, we propose the island model parallel memetic algorithm with diversity-based dynamic adaptive strategy (PMADLS) for controlling the local search frequency and demons...
The behavior of natural, biological ecosystems is for a large part determined by environmental conditions. It should therefore be possible to experimentally manipulate such condit...

Metacomputing infrastructures couple multiple clusters (or MPPs) via wide-area networks. A major problem in programming parallel applications for such platforms is their hierarchi...
As many real-world problems involve user preferences, costs, or probabilities, constraint satisfaction has been extended to optimization by generalizing hard constraints to soft co...
