Abstract. Bit-parallelism permits executing several operations simultaneously over a set of bits or numbers stored in a single computer word. This technique permits searching for t...
Several methods have been proposed for handling nonlinear constraints by evolutionary algorithms for numerical optimization problems; a survey paper [7] provides an overview of var...
