This article describes a new model of probability density function and its use in estimation of distribution algorithms. The new model, the distribution tree, has interesting prope...
In a shared-memory multiprocessor system, it is possible that certain synchronization operations are redundant -that is, their corresponding sequencing requirements are enforced c...

Abstract. In this paper, we propose an approach for solving hierarchical multi-objective optimization problems (MOPs). In realistic MOPs, two main challenges have to be considered:...
Abstract. We explore a new general-purpose heuristic for nding highquality solutions to hard optimization problems. The method, called extremal optimization, is inspired by self-or...

— This paper presents a genetic algorithm (GA) with a stress-based crossover (SX) operator to obtain a solution without checkerboard patterns for multi-constrained topology optim...
