Modern query optimizers select an efficient join ordering for a physical execution plan based essentially on the average join selectivity factors among the referenced tables. In ...
Multimodal optimization algorithms inspired by the immune system are generally characterized by a dynamic control of the population size and by diversity maintenance along the sea...
Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are a search and optimization technique based on the mechanism of evolution. Recently, another sort of population-based optimization method called Estimat...
In this paper we present a nonlinear programming solution to one of the most challenging problems in trajectory optimization. Unlike most aerospace trajectory optimization problems...
