Deceptive problems have always been considered difficult for Genetic Algorithms. To cope with this characteristic, the literature has proposed the use of Parallel Genetic Algorith...
We investigate a task insertion heuristic for oversubscribed scheduling problems, max-availability, that uses a simple estimate of resource contention to assign tasks to intervals...
We consider a server location problem with only one server to move. In this paper we assume that a request is given as a region and that the service can be done anywhere inside th...
An alternate formulation of the classical vehicle routing problem with stochastic demands (VRPSD) is considered. We propose a new heuristic method to solve the problem. The algori...
This paper analyzes the behavior of a selectorecombinative genetic algorithm (GA) with an ideal crossover on a class of random additively decomposable problems (rADPs). Specifical...
