We present a SAT-based approach to the task and message allocation problem of distributed real-time systems with hierarchical architectures. In contrast to the heuristic approache...
This paper introduces a new social metaheuristic for the Max-Cut problem applied to a weighted undirected graph. This problem consists in finding a partition of the nodes into two ...
Multi-agent systems are widely used to address large-scale distributed combinatorial applications in the real world. One such application is meeting scheduling (MS), which is deï¬...
Current Genetic Algorithms can efficiently address order-k separable problems, in which the order of the linkage is restricted to a low value k. Outside this class, there exist hie...

The paper describes a general glance to the use of element exchange techniques for optimization over permutations. A multi-level description of problems is proposed which is a fund...
