We introduce a new technique to solve exactly a discrete optimization problem, based on the paradigm of “negative” thinking. The motivation is that when searching the space of...

One of the main problems in applying evolutionary optimisation methods is the choice of operators and parameter values. This paper propose a competitive evolution method, in which ...
This paper considers the problem of an agent searching for a resource or a tangible good in a physical environment, where at each stage of its search it observes one source where ...

We consider the problem of periodic exploration of all nodes in undirected graphs by using a nite state automaton called later a robot. The robot, using a constant number of state...

We propose a novel Partition Path-Based (PPB) grouping strategy to store compressed XML data in a stream of blocks. In addition, we employ a minimal indexing scheme called Block S...
