A Scalable and Robust Framework for Distributed Applications (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Jelasity, M., Preuss, M., & Paechter, B. (2002, May). A Scalable and Robust Framework for Distributed Applications. Presented at 2002 Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC'02), Honolulu, HI, US

This paper describes a novel tool for running distributed experiments on the Internet. The possible applications include simple load balancing, parallel evolutionary computation, agent-based simulation and artificial life. Our environment is based on...

A General Model for the Answer-Perturbation Techniques (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Stamate, D., Luchian, H., & Paechter, B. (1994, September). A General Model for the Answer-Perturbation Techniques. Presented at Seventh International Working Conference on Scientific and Statistical Database Management, Charlottesville, VA, US

Answer-perturbation techniques for the protection of statistical databases have been previously introduced (Luchian and Stamate, 1992); they are flexible (perturbation kept under control), modular (do not interact with the DBMS) techniques, which com...

Improving street based routing using building block mutations. (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Urquhart, N. B., Ross, P., Paechter, B., & Chisholm, K. (2002, April). Improving street based routing using building block mutations. Presented at Workshops on Applications of Evolutionary Computation EvoWorkshops 2002, Kinsale, Ireland

Street based routing (SBR) is a real-world inspired routing problem that builds routes within an urban area for mail deliveries. The authors have previously attempted to solve this problem using an Evolutionary Algorithm (EA). In this paper the autho...

Street-based routing using an evolutionary algorithm (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Urquhart, N. B., Paechter, B., & Chisholm, K. (2001, April). Street-based routing using an evolutionary algorithm. Presented at Workshops on Applications of Evolutionary Computation EvoWorkshops 2001, Como, Italy

Much research has been carried out into solving routing problems using both Evolutionary Techniques and other methods. In this paper the authors investigate the usage of an Evolutionary Algorithms to solve the Street-Based Routing Problem (SBRP). The...

Solving CSPs with evolutionary algorithms using self-adaptive constraint weights. (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Eiben, A. E., Jansen, B., Michalewicz, Z., & Paechter, B. (2000, July). Solving CSPs with evolutionary algorithms using self-adaptive constraint weights. Presented at Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference (GECCO-2000)

This paper examines evolutionary algorithms (EAs) extended by various penalty-based approaches to solve constraint satisfaction
problems (CSPs). In some approaches, the penalties are set in advance and they do not change during a run. In other appro... Read More about Solving CSPs with evolutionary algorithms using self-adaptive constraint weights..
