It is well known that there cannot be a single "best" heuristic for optimal planning in general. One way of overcoming this is by combining admissible heuristics (e.g. b...
We present a new approach to optimal rectangle packing, an NP-complete problem that can be used to model many simple scheduling tasks. Recent attempts at incorporating artificial ...
Abstract-- Recently, the research on quantum-inspired evolutionary algorithms (QEA) has attracted some attention in the area of evolutionary computation. QEA use a probabilistic re...
This paper introduces a new approach to the problem of quantitative reconstruction of an object from few radiographic views. A mixed variable programming problem is formulated in ...

Clusters and distributed systems offer fault tolerance and high performance through load sharing. When all n computers are up and running, we would like the load to be evenly distr...
