This paper addresses the multi-agent patrolling problem, which consists for a set of autonomous agents to visit all the places of an unknown environment as regularly as possible. T...
The divide-and-conquer pattern of parallelism is a powerful approach to organize parallelism on problems that are expressed naturally in a recursive way. In fact, recent tools such...
This paper combines the idea of a hierarchical distributed genetic algorithm with different interagent partnering strategies. Cascading clusters of sub-populations are built from ...
Using unconstrained binary quadratic programming problem as a case study, we investigate the role of multi-parent crossover operators within the memetic algorithm framework. We eva...
