NSGA-II and TOPSIS for a Multi-Objective Vehicle Routing Problem with Ecological Considerations (2022)
Book Chapter
Petrovic, S., Jubaer Islam, K., & Trautrims, A. (in press). NSGA-II and TOPSIS for a Multi-Objective Vehicle Routing Problem with Ecological Considerations. In Optimization Techniques - Theory and Practice. Springer

Reducing CO2 emissions in transport and logistics is currently a goal of uttermost importance in vehicle routing. Environmental awareness has grown in recent years and organisations are more willing to consider sustainability in their decision-making...

Hybrid Graph Heuristics within a Hyper-heuristic Approach to Exam Timetabling Problems (2005)
Book Chapter
Burke, E., Dror, M., Petrovic, S., & Qu, R. (2005). Hybrid Graph Heuristics within a Hyper-heuristic Approach to Exam Timetabling Problems. In B. Golden, S. Raghavan, & E. Wasil (Eds.), The Next Wave in Computing, Optimization, and Decision Technologies. Springer

This paper is concerned with the hybridization of two graph coloring heuristics (Saturation Degree and Largest Degree), and their application within a hyperheuristic for exam timetabling problems. Hyper-heuristics can be seen as algorithms which inte... Read More about Hybrid Graph Heuristics within a Hyper-heuristic Approach to Exam Timetabling Problems.

Case-Based Reasoning as a Heuristic Selector in a Hyper-Heuristic for Course Timetabling Problems (2002)
Book Chapter
Petrovic, S., & Qu, R. (2002). Case-Based Reasoning as a Heuristic Selector in a Hyper-Heuristic for Course Timetabling Problems. In Knowledge-Based Intelligent Information Engineering Systems and Allied Technologies. IOS Press

This paper studies Knowledge Discovery (KD) using Tabu Search and Hill Climbing within Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) as a hyper-heuristic method for course timetabling problems. The aim of the hyper-heuristic is to choose the best heuristic(s) for given... Read More about Case-Based Reasoning as a Heuristic Selector in a Hyper-Heuristic for Course Timetabling Problems.
