Combining Multiple Heuristics Online
We present black-box techniques for learning how to interleave the execution of multiple heuristics in order to improve average-case performance. In our model, a user is given a s...

Simulation and optimization for construction repetitive projects using promodel and simrunner
We introduce a new approach, called Relative Start and Idle Time (RSIT), to solve probabilistic scheduling problems of construction repetitive projects. RSIT is a process of deter...

An evolutionary design technique for collective communications on optimal diameter-degree networks
Scheduling collective communications (CC) in networks based on optimal graphs and digraphs has been done with the use of the evolutionary techniques. Inter-node communication patt...
