The evolution of software systems over many years often leads to unnecessarily complex and in exible designs which in turn lead to a huge amount of e ort for enhancements and main...
—The problem of active shielding of some domains from the effect of the sources distributed in other domains is considered. The problem can be formulated either in a bounded dom...
This paper presents two novel genetic algorithms (GAs) for hard industrially relevant packing problems. The design of both algorithms is inspired by aspects of molecular genetics,...
Abstract. A Greedy Randomized Adaptive Search Procedure (GRASP) is a randomized heuristic that has produced high quality solutions for a wide range of combinatorial optimization pr...
