Maximum instantaneous power in VLSI circuits has a great impact on circuit's reliability and the design of power and ground lines. To synthesizehighlyreliablesystems,accurate...
There are two reasons for parallelizing a metaheuristic if one is interested in performance: (i) given a fixed time to search, the aim is to increase the quality of the solutions f...
Abstract. In previous papers we proposed an algorithm for real parameter optimization called the Aggregation Pheromone System (APS). The APS replaces pheromone trails in traditiona...
Biologists highly rely on good algorithms for finding homologous regions in bimolecular sequences. An advanced homology search program named PatternHunter has recently been develo...
