Interval scheduling is a basic problem in the theory of algorithms and a classical task in combinatorial optimization. We develop a set of techniques for partitioning and grouping jobs based on their starting and ending times, that enable…
In this paper we focus on finding high quality solutions for the problem of maximum partitioning of graphs with supply and demand (MPGSD). There is a growing interest for the MPGSD due to its close connection to problems appearing in the…
We propose a simulated annealing algorithm specifically tailored to optimise total retrieval times in a multi-level warehouse under complex pre-batched picking constraints. Experiments on real data from a picker-to-parts order picking…
In this work, we propose a distributed rate allocation algorithm that minimizes the average decoding delay for multimedia clients in inter-session network coding systems. We consider a scenario where the users are organized in a mesh…
This paper considers single-machine scheduling problems in which a given solution, i.e. an ordered set of jobs, has to be improved as much as possible by re-sequencing the jobs. The need for rescheduling may arise in different contexts,…
Detecting communities from complex networks has recently triggered great interest. Aiming at this problem, a new ant colony optimization strategy building on the Markov random walks theory, which is named as MACO, is proposed in this paper.…
We present DisCo, a distributed algorithm for contact-rich, multi-robot tasks. DisCo is a distributed contact-implicit trajectory optimization algorithm, which allows a group of robots to optimize a time sequence of forces to objects and to…
It is not rare that the performance of one metaheuristic algorithm can be improved by incorporating ideas taken from another. In this article we present how Simulated Annealing (SA) can be used to improve the efficiency of the Ant Colony…
Datacenters consume a growing share of energy, prompting the need for sustainable resource management. This paper presents a Hybrid ACO-PSO (HAPSO) algorithm for energy-aware virtual machine (VM) placement and migration in green cloud…
This paper provides three nearly-optimal algorithms for scheduling $t$ jobs in the $\mathsf{CLIQUE}$ model. First, we present a deterministic scheduling algorithm that runs in $O(\mathsf{GlobalCongestion} + \mathsf{dilation})$ rounds for…
This paper studies the problem of congestion control and scheduling in ad hoc wireless networks that have to support a mixture of best-effort and real-time traffic. Optimization and stochastic network theory have been successful in…
The problem of task scheduling with communication delays is strongly NP-hard. State-space search algorithms such as A* have been shown to be a promising approach to solving small to medium sized instances optimally. A recently proposed…
The NP-hard problem of task scheduling with communication delays (P|prec,c_{ij}|C_{\mathrm{max}}) is often tackled using approximate methods, but guarantees on the quality of these heuristic solutions are hard to come by. Optimal schedules…
Ant colony optimization (ACO) leverages the parameter $\alpha$ to modulate the decision function's sensitivity to pheromone levels, balancing the exploration of diverse solutions with the exploitation of promising areas. Identifying the…
Gradual pattern extraction is a field in (KDD) Knowledge Discovery in Databases that maps correlations between attributes of a data set as gradual dependencies. A gradual dependency may take a form of "the more Attribute K , the less…
A hard-deadline, opportunistic scheduling problem in which $B$ bits must be transmitted within $T$ time-slots over a time-varying channel is studied: the transmitter must decide how many bits to serve in each slot based on knowledge of the…
The proper planning of different types of public transportation such as metro, highway, waterways, and so on, can increase the efficiency, reduce the congestion and improve the safety of the country. There are certain challenges associated…
We propose a new hybrid quantum algorithm based on the classical Ant Colony Optimization algorithm to produce approximate solutions for NP-hard problems, in particular optimization problems. First, we discuss some previously proposed…
This paper focuses on the problem of coflow scheduling with precedence constraints in identical parallel networks, which is a well-known $\mathcal{NP}$-hard problem. Coflow is a relatively new network abstraction used to characterize…
The main objective of this paper is to improve the Round Robin scheduling algorithm using the dynamic time slice concept. CPU scheduling becomes very important in accomplishing the operating system (OS) design goals. The intention should be…
