This paper studies a multi-objective fortnightly university course timetabling problem. In this research, the Industrial Engineering Department of the Ferdowsi University of Mashhad is considered as the case study for ...

memetic algorithm. We also define the potential objective function (POF) for the nodes. To make the memetic algorithm more efficient, we estimate the variation of the objective function based on POF in the local search as part of an operator in the memetic...

-based mathematical models and two metaheuristic algorithms including memetic algorithm and a variable neighborhood search for the problem. Computational tests on a set of randomly generated instances and on set of benchmark data indicate the effectiveness...

Timetabling is the problem of scheduling a set of events while satisfying various constraints. In this

paper, we develop and study the performance of an evolutionary algorithm, designed to solve a specific

variant ...

Wideband, GMR-based reflector is designed employing a novel variant of memetic algorithm with fuzzy

logic local search. High quality, single periodic layer reflector with SOI structure is designed with reflectance >99.50% over 1.35 μm to 1...

(DPX) operator, we design a new recombination operator for solving a BTLP by new evolutionary and memetic algorithms namely, genetic local search algorithms (GLS). We also define the potential objective function (POF) for the nodes and design a new...
