The joint replenishment of inventory problem (JRP) requires independence of minor ordering costs. In this paper we propose an evolutionary algorithm (EA) for a modification of the...
In this paper, we present a detailed analysis of the application of Genetic Programming to the evolution of distributed algorithms. This research field has many facets which make...
MPI is the de-facto standard for message passing in parallel scientific applications. MPI-IO is a part of the MPI-2 specification defining file I/O operations in the MPI world....
General combinatorial auctions—auctions in which bidders place unrestricted bids for bundles of goods—are the subject of increasing study. Much of this work has focused on alg...
Abstract. In order to escape from local optima, it is standard practice to periodically restart a genetic algorithm according to some restart criteria/policy. This paper addresses ...
