Evolutionary computation in combinatorial optimization ; 8th European Conference, EvoCOP 2008, Naples, Italy, March 26-28, 2008. Proceedings
Metaheuristics have been shown to be e?ective for di?cult combinatorial - timization problems appearing in various industrial, economical, and scientifc domains. Prominent examples of metaheuristics are evolutionary algorithms, tabu search, simulated annealing, scatter search, memetic algorithms, variable neighborhood search, iterated local search, greedy randomized adaptive search procedures, ant colony optimization and estimation of distribution algorithms. Problems solved successfully include scheduling, timetabling, network design, transportation and distribution, vehicle routing, the travelling salesman pr- lem, packing and cutting, satisfability and general mixed integer programming.
Evolutionary computation in combinatorial optimization ; 7th European Conference, EvoCOP 2007, Valencia, Spain, April 11-13, 2007, Proceedings
This book cover evolutionary algorithms as well as various other metaheuristics, like scatter search, tabu search, memetic algorithms, variable neighborhood search, greedy randomized adaptive search procedures, ant colony optimization, and particle swarm optimization algorithms. The papers are specifically dedicat.
