The predictable trajectory of underwater gliders can be used in geographic routing protocols. Factors such as drifting and localization errors cause uncertainty when estimating a g...
In this paper, we proposed Fittest Individual Refinement (FIR), a crossover based local search method for Differential Evolution (DE). The FIR scheme accelerates DE by enhancing...
We study the convergence properties of the hp-version of the local discontinuous Galerkin finite element method for convection-diffusion problems; we consider a model problem in a ...

Abstract. Global optimization seeks a minimum or maximum of a multimodal function over a discrete or continuous domain. In this paper, we propose a hybrid heuristic – based on th...

This work introduces a highly constrained school timetabling problem which was modeled from the requirements of a German high school. The concept for solving the problem uses a hyb...
