This paper presents a genetic algorithm (GA) with specialized encoding, initialization and local search genetic operators to optimize communication network topologies. This NPhard...
—Consider the problem of a robot (learning mechanism or algorithm) attempting to locate a point on a line. The mechanism interacts with a random environment which essentially inf...
We present a randomized strategy for maintaining balance in dynamically changing search trees that has optimal expected behavior. In particular, in the expected case a search or a...
In this paper, we present the parallelization of tabu search on a network of workstations using PVM. Two parallelization strategies are integrated: functional decomposition strate...
