The increased focus on heuristics for the approximate solution of integer programs has led to more sophisticated analysis methods for studying their performance. This paper is concerned with the worst ...

In view of the strongly NP-hard nature of this problem, three meta-heuristic algorithms—an ant colony system algorithm, a Genetic algorithm, and a Tabu search algorithm are proposed.

In this paper we have introduced a heuristic algorithm which automatically maps a given set of intellectual property onto a generic regular network-on-chip (NoC) architecture and constructs a ...

The researchers are seeking to address these concerns and make QKD viable by introducing a new metric called "maximum number ...

In the fast-evolving fields of artificial intelligence, operations research, and computational intelligence, metaheuristics ...

The vision seems to be to create a system which can do for formal knowledge (all the formally definable systems, heuristics, algorithms, rules, methods, theorems, and facts in the world) what ...
