Hyper-heuristics. (2005)
Book Chapter
Ross, P. (2005). Hyper-heuristics. In E. Burke, & G. Kendall (Eds.), Search Methodologies: Introductory Tutorials in Optimization and Decision Support Techniques (529-556). Springer-Verlag

This chapter introduces and overviews an emerging methodology in search and optimisation. One of the key aims of these new approaches, which have been termed hyper-heuristics, is to raise the level of generality at which optimisation systems can oper... Read More about Hyper-heuristics..

Evolutionary scheduling: a review. (2005)
Journal Article
Hart, E., Ross, P., & Corne, D. (2005). Evolutionary scheduling: a review. Genetic Programming and Evolvable Machines, 6, 191-220. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10710-005-7580-7

Early and seminal work which applied evolutionary computing methods to scheduling problems from 1985 onwards laid a strong and exciting foundation for the work which has been reported over the past decade or so. A survey of the current state-of-the-a... Read More about Evolutionary scheduling: a review..

The impact of the shape of antibody recognition regions on the emergence of idiotypic networks. (2005)
Journal Article
Hart, E., & Ross, P. (2005). The impact of the shape of antibody recognition regions on the emergence of idiotypic networks. International Journal of Unconventional Computing, 1, 281-313

One of the components of an AIS algorithm that most distinguishes it from other paradigms is the use of an affinity funciton. However, for the most part, the implications of choosing a suitable matching rule and the likely effects on the algorithm fr...
