A number of biological applications require comparison of large genome strings. Current techniques suffer from both disk I/O and computational cost because of extensive memory req...
Local search algorithms often get trapped in local optima. Algorithms such as tabu search and simulated annealing 'escape' local optima by accepting nonimproving moves. ...
