—Many important network design problems can be formulated as a combinatorial optimization problem. A large number of such problems, however, cannot readily be tackled by distribu...
Multimodal optimization problems consist in detecting all global and local optima of a problem. A new evolutionary approach to multimodal optimization called Roaming technique (RO...
Given two sets of strings, consider the problem to find a subsequence that is common to one set but never appears in the other set. The problem is known to be NP-complete. We gene...
In this paper we study the constrained consensus problem, i.e. the problem of reaching a common point from the estimates generated by multiple agents that are constrained to lie in...
— Since Witsenhausen put forward his remarkable counterexample in 1968, there have been many attempts to develop efficient methods for solving this non-convex functional optimiz...
