Satellite downlink scheduling problem: A case study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The synthetic aperture radar (SAR) technology enables satellites to efficiently acquire high quality images of the Earth surface. This generates significant communication traffic from the satellite to the ground stations, and, thus, image downlinking ...

Problem Solving in Crowd Management Using Heuristic Approach

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
There are many problems that procedural algorithms can solve efficiently. However, these algorithms are sometimes too slow to abide by the time available for performing the solution; other times, it is impossible to get a solution using procedural ...

Meta-heuristics and Artificial Intelligence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Meta-heuristics are generic search methods that are used to solve challenging combinatorial problems. We describe these methods and highlight their common features and differences by grouping them in two main kinds of approaches: Perturbative meta-heuristics that build new combinations by modifying existing combinations (such as, for example, genetic ...

Meta-Heuristics: An Overview [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Meta-heuristics are the most recent development in approximate search methods for solving complex optimization problems, that arise in business, commerce, engineering, industry, and many other areas. A meta-heuristic guides a subordinate heuristic using concepts derived from artificial intelligence, biological, mathematical, natural and physical ...

An Ant Colony based Hyper-Heuristic Approach for the Set Covering Problem

open access: yesAdvances in Distributed Computing and Artificial Intelligence Journal, 2015
The Set Covering Problem (SCP) is a NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem that is challenging for meta-heuristic algorithms. In the optimization literature, several approaches using meta-heuristics have been developed to tackle the SCP and the ...
