Heuristic Revision by Heuristic Space Exploration [PDF]
2009 International Conference on Knowledge and Systems Engineering, 2009 Heuristics are often used to solve complex problems. Indeed, such problem-specific knowledge, when pertinent, helps to efficiency find good solutions to complex problems. Unfortunately, acquiring and maintaining a heuristic set can be fastidious. In order to face this problem, a approach consists in revising the heuristic sets by means of experiments ...

Dynamic weighted idle time heuristic for flowshop scheduling [PDF]
, 2015 The constructive heuristic of Nawaz, Enscore and Ham (NEH) has been introduced in 1983 to solve flowshop scheduling. Many researchers have continued to improve the NEH by adding new steps and procedures to the existing algorithm.

Meta-heuristic algorithms in car engine design: a literature survey [PDF]
, 2015 Meta-heuristic algorithms are often inspired by natural phenomena, including the evolution of species in Darwinian natural selection theory, ant behaviors in biology, flock behaviors of some birds, and annealing in metallurgy.

ANZ Journal of Surgery, 2008 Heuristics are rules of thumb. Rarely described in surgical or other publications, they are an essential part of safe and expert performance. This study translates such implicit or procedural knowledge into explicit or declarative knowledge, with a view to improving both training and retraining of surgeons in the steps of dissection. Tools used include
