A new problem encoding is devised for the minimum span frequency assignment problem in wireless communications networks which is compact and general. Using the new encoding, which...
Abstract. This paper is on the automation of knowledge-intensive tasks in engineering domains; here, the term “task” relates to analysis and synthesis tasks, such as diagnosis ...
We investigate the search properties of pre-evolutionary random catalytic reaction networks, where reactions might be reversible, and replication is not taken for granted. Since it...
Tabu search algorithms are amongst the most successful local search based methods for the maximum satisfiability problem. The practical superiority of tabu search over the local s...
This paper introduces the wave model, a novel approach on analyzing the behavior of GAs. Our aim is to give techniques that have practical relevance and provide tools for improvin...
