We apply a novel theoretical approach to better understand the behaviour of different types of bare-bones PSOs. It avoids many common but unrealistic assumptions often used in an...
In this paper we propose two price-based job allocation schemes for computational grids. A grid system tries to solve problems submitted by various grid users by allocating the jo...
Abstract. To direct automated Web service composition, it is compelling to provide a template, workflow or scaffolding that dictates the ways in which services can be composed. I...
Quadratic optimization lies at the very heart of many structural pattern recognition and computer vision problems, such as graph matching, object recognition, image segmentation, ...
We present a unified heuristic, which is able to solve five different variants of the vehicle routing problem: the vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW), the capacit...
