The success of stochastic algorithms is often due to their ability to effectively amplify the performance of search heuristics. This is certainly the case with stochastic sampling ...
— Simulated Evolution (SimE) is a sound stochastic approximation algorithm based on the principles of adaptation. If properly engineered it is possible for SimE to reach nearopti...
This contribution describes a general mixed-integer linear programming model based on a time-indexed formulation covering the relevant features required for the complete supply ch...
In hierarchical reliable multicast schemes, the number of repair proxies and their locations influence the delivery delay. Low delivery delay is essential for the transmission of...
—High instruction cache hit rates are key to high performance. One known technique to improve the hit rate of caches is to minimize cache interference by improving the layout of ...
