In this paper we tackle the problem of jointly finding the optimal location of the ATM switches, the topology of the backbone and local access networks, the...

This paper reviews genetic algorithms and evolution systems and describes implementation of an evolution system to solve the QAP. Extensive search to select...

Après une présentation générale du problème de Design d'Implantation d'Usine, un survol des différentes méthodes de solution est proposé. Ces méthodes peuve...

Cylindrical aromatic compounds - fullerenes and hydrocarbons - are about to become highly interesting objects of chemical research. A tubulene (tubular ben...

We present a method for designing spine layouts. A spine layout is a layout in which a main aisle is used for the movements between the work cells located o...

Layout planning is an appropriate area in which to apply optimization models. A method is proposed here for evaluating general layouts (block layouts) when ...

La génération d'implantation est un domaine privilégié pour l'application des modèles d'optimisation. Il est proposé, ici, une méthode d'évaluation d'implan...
