—This paper considers the problem of pricing and transmission scheduling for an Access Point (AP) in a wireless network, where the AP provides service to a set of mobile users. T...
Abstract. We describe in this paper Ant-P-solver, a generic constraint solver based on the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) metaheuristic. The ACO metaheuristic takes inspiration on t...
We propose a convex-concave programming approach for the labeled weighted graph matching problem. The convex-concave programming formulation is obtained by rewriting the weighted ...

Term weighting strongly influences the performance of text mining and information retrieval approaches. Usually term weights are determined through statistical estimates based on s...
Stochastic local search (SLS) algorithms have been successfully applied to hard combinatorial problems from different domains. Due to their inherent randomness, the run-time behav...
