Abstract. The Longest Common Subsequence (LCS) problem is a classic and well-studied problem in computer science. The LCS problem is a common task in DNA sequence analysis with man...
Despite a number of similarities, vehicle routing problems and scheduling problems are typically solved with different techniques. In this paper, we undertake a systematic study o...

Deceptive problems have been considered difficult for ant colony optimization (ACO) and it was believed that ACO will fail to converge to global optima of deceptive problems. Thi...
We present an efficient algorithm that checks the consistency of partial descriptions of ordered trees. The constraint language of these descriptions was introduced by Cornell in c...
A class of extended aggregation operators, called impact functions, is proposed and their basic properties are examined. Some important classes of functions like generalized ordere...
