Abstract. In our previous studies, Genetic Programming (GP), Probabilistic Incremental Program Evolution (PIPE) and Ant Programming (AP) have been used to optimal design of Flexibl...
Optimization problems such as resource allocation, job-shop scheduling, equipment utilization and process scheduling occur in a broad range of processing industries. This paper pr...

We present a theory of a modeler's problem decomposition skills in the context of optimal reasonzng -- the use of qualitative modeling to strategically guide numerical explor...
In this work we evaluate a Particle Swarm Optimizer hybridized with Differential Evolution and apply it to the BlackBox Optimization Benchmarking for noisy functions (BBOB 2009)....
