Improved dynamic lexicographic ordering for multi-objective optimisation (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Castro-Gutierrez, J., Landa-Silva, D., & Moreno-Perez, J. A. (2010). Improved dynamic lexicographic ordering for multi-objective optimisation.

There is a variety of methods for ranking objectives in multiobjective optimization and some are difficult to define because they require information a priori (e.g. establishing weights in a weighted approach or setting the ordering in a lexicographi...

CODEA : an agent based multi-objective optimization framework (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Castro-Gutierrez, J., Landa-Silva, D., & Moreno-Perez, J. (2010). CODEA : an agent based multi-objective optimization framework.

This work presents CODEA, a COoperative DEcentralized Architecture for Multiobjective Optimization. CODEA is an objectoriented framework that aims at the creation of groups of agents to tackle complex problems by cooperative search. This cooperation...

Computational study of non-linear great deluge for university course timetabling (2010)
Book Chapter
Obit, J. H., & Landa-Silva, D. (2010). Computational study of non-linear great deluge for university course timetabling. In V. Sgurev, M. Hadjiski, & J. Kacprzyk (Eds.), Intelligent systems: from theory to practice. Springer

The great deluge algorithm explores neighbouring solutions which are accepted if they are better than the best solution so far or if the detriment in quality is no larger than the current water level. In the original great deluge method, the water le... Read More about Computational study of non-linear great deluge for university course timetabling.

Iterated heuristic algorithms for the classroom assignment problem (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Constantino, A. A., Filho, W. M., & Landa-Silva, D. (2010). Iterated heuristic algorithms for the classroom assignment problem.

We tackle the classroom assignment problem in a large University with the objective of minimising the total distance between all classrooms assigned to teaching activities in the same course. Additional requirements that should be satisfied include:... Read More about Iterated heuristic algorithms for the classroom assignment problem.

A 0/1 integer programming model for the office space allocation problem (2010)
Journal Article
Ulker, O., & Landa-Silva, D. (2010). A 0/1 integer programming model for the office space allocation problem. Electronic Notes in Discrete Mathematics, 36, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.endm.2010.05.073

We propose a 0/1 integer programming model to tackle the office space allocation (OSA) problem which refers to assigning room space to a set of entities (people, machines, roles, etc.), with the goal of optimising the space utilisation while satisfyi...

Towards an integrated workforce management system (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Landa-Silva, D., Castillo, A., Bowie, L., & Johnston, H. (2010). Towards an integrated workforce management system.

We describe progress towards a workforce management system in which personnel scheduling is integrated with other important processes such as payroll processing, attendance and absence recording, staffing forecast and planning, etc. Our focus is on c...

Evolutionary multi-objective optimization algorithms with probabilistic representation based on pheromone trails (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Li, H., Landa-Silva, D., & Gandibleux, X. (2010). Evolutionary multi-objective optimization algorithms with probabilistic representation based on pheromone trails.

Recently, the research on quantum-inspired evolutionary algorithms (QEA) has attracted some attention in the area of evolutionary computation. QEA use a probabilistic representation, called Q-bit, to encode individuals in population. Unlike standard...

Towards the design of heuristics by means of self-assembly (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Terrazas, G., Landa-Silva, D., & Krasnogor, N. (2010). Towards the design of heuristics by means of self-assembly.

The current investigations on hyper-heuristics design have sprung up in two different flavours: heuristics that choose heuristics and heuristics that generate heuristics. In the latter, the goal is to develop a problem-domain independent strategy to... Read More about Towards the design of heuristics by means of self-assembly.
