Towards a scalable broadcast in wormhole-switched mesh networks (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Al-Dubai, A. Y., Ould-Khaoua, M., & Mackenzie, L. M. (2002). Towards a scalable broadcast in wormhole-switched mesh networks. In Proceedings of the 2002 ACM symposium on Applied computing (840-844). https://doi.org/10.1145/508791.508955

Broadcast algorithms for wormhole--switched meshes have been widely reported in the literature. However, most of these algorithms handle broadcast in a sequential manner and do not scale well with the network size. As a consequence, many parallel ap...

A GA evolving instructions for a timetable builder. (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Blum, C., Correia, S., Dorigo, M., Paechter, B., Rossi-Doria, O., & Snoek, M. (2002). A GA evolving instructions for a timetable builder. In E. Burke, & P. Causmaecker (Eds.), Proceedings of the Conference on the Practice and Theory of Automated Timetabli

In this work we present a Genetic Algorithm for tackling timetabling problems. Our approach uses an indirect solution representation, which denotes a number of instructions for a timetable builder on how to sequentially build a solution. These instru...
