Combining parallel coordinates with multi-objective evolutionary algorithms in a real-world optimisation problem (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Urquhart, N. (2017, June). Combining parallel coordinates with multi-objective evolutionary algorithms in a real-world optimisation problem. Presented at Proceedings of the Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference Companion on - GECCO '17

Optimisation problems based upon real-world instances often contain many objectives. Many existing Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm techniques return a set of solutions from which the user must make a final selection; typically such a set of so...

A Unifying Software Framework for Vehicle Routing and Logistics (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Enenkel, J., Geyer, J., Keiner, J., Nguyen, J., Steuler, J. L., & Urquhart, N. (2017, July). A Unifying Software Framework for Vehicle Routing and Logistics. Paper presented at Annual Workshop of the EURO Working Group on Vehicle Routing and Logistics optimization (VeRoLog), Amsterdam

A wide range of open source tools and real world data are available to support those working on vehicle routing and logistics optimisation. Despite such tools being available there is still a requirement for a unifying software API to allow researche... Read More about A Unifying Software Framework for Vehicle Routing and Logistics.

The importance of the individual encoding in memetic algorithms with diversity control applied to large Sudoku puzzles (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Segura, C., Segredo, E., & Miranda, G. (2017, June). The importance of the individual encoding in memetic algorithms with diversity control applied to large Sudoku puzzles. Presented at 2017 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC)

In recent years, several memetic algorithms with explicit mechanisms to delay convergence have shown great promise when solving 9x9 Sudoku puzzles. This paper analyzes and extends state-of-the-art schemes for dealing with Sudoku puzzles of larger dim...

The Effectiveness of Two Audiovisual Mappings to Control a Concatenative Synthesiser (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Tsiros, A., & Leplâtre, G. (2017, July). The Effectiveness of Two Audiovisual Mappings to Control a Concatenative Synthesiser. Presented at Sound and Music Computing 2017

This paper presents the results of an investigation into audio visual (AV) correspondences conducted as part of the development of Morpheme, a painting interface to control a corpus-based concatenative sound synthesiser. Our goal was to measure the e... Read More about The Effectiveness of Two Audiovisual Mappings to Control a Concatenative Synthesiser.

A new enhanced RPL based routing for Internet of Things (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ghaleb, B., Al-Dubai, A., Ekonomou, E., & Wadhaj, I. (2017, June). A new enhanced RPL based routing for Internet of Things. Presented at 2017 IEEE International Conference on Communications Workshops (ICC Workshops)

The IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low-power and Lossy Networks (RPL) has been recently standardized for routing in the constrained Internet of Things networks. Unfortunately, the RPL storing mode has been found restricted by storage limitations in the ro... Read More about A new enhanced RPL based routing for Internet of Things.

Permaculture as a foundation for sustainable interaction design and UX (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
