HYPERDOCK: Improving virtual screening through parallel hyperheuristics [PDF]
Virtual screening (VS) methods aid clinical research by predicting the interaction of ligands with pharmacological targets. The computational requirements of VS, along with the size of the databases, propitiate the use of high-performance computing. METADOCK is a tool for the application of metaheuristics to VS in heterogeneous clusters of computers ...

Hybridizations within a graph based hyper-heuristic framework for university timetabling problems [PDF]
A significant body of recent literature has explored various research directions in hyper-heuristics (which can be thought as heuristics to choose heuristics). In this paper, we extend our previous work to construct a unified graph-based hyper-heuristic (
