The algorithm uses Simulated Annealing to explore the solution space of a multi-dimensional knapsack problem by probabilistically accepting worse solutions early on to escape local optima. It ...

Abstract: In this study, a simulated annealing algorithm with mutation operator is proposed to solve the manufacturing cell formation problem considering multiple process routings for part. The ...

The D-Wave computer is currently the latest link of a long chain of computers designed for the solution of optimization problems. In what sense does it realize quantum computation? We describe the ...

If you want to simulate a tic-tac-toe game, that’s easy. You can evaluate every possible move in a reasonable amount of time. Simulating antennas, however, is much harder. [Rosrislav] has been ...
