Evaluation of the Simulated Annealing and the Discrete Artificial Bee Colony in the Weight Tardiness Problem with Taguchi Experiments Parameterization [PDF]
Meta-Heuristics (MH) are the most used optimization techniques to approach Complex Combinatorial Problems (COPs). Their ability to move beyond the local optimums make them an especially attractive choice to solve complex computational problems, such as ...

Solving the Mask Data Preparation Scheduling Problem Using Meta-Heuristics
Mask data preparation (MDP) is a part of the mask data process for fabricating semiconductors, and its importance has commonly been neglected. This paper proposes an integer linear programming model and two meta-heuristics, a genetic algorithm (GA) and ...

Applying Learning and Self-Adaptation to Dynamic Scheduling
Real-world production scheduling scenarios are often not discrete, separable, iterative tasks but rather dynamic processes where both external (e.g., new orders, delivery shortages) and internal (e.g., machine breakdown, timing uncertainties, human ...

On the prediction of pseudo relative permeability curves: meta-heuristics versus Quasi-Monte Carlo
This article reports the first application of the Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) method for estimation of the pseudo relative permeability curves. In this regards, the performance of several meta-heuristics algorithms have also been compared versus QMC ...

Case-based reasoning for meta-heuristics self-parameterization in a multi-agent scheduling system [PDF]
A novel agent-based approach to Meta-Heuristics self-configuration is proposed in this work. Meta-heuristics are examples of algorithms where parameters need to be set up as efficient as possible in order to unsure its performance.
