Abstract: Many engineering design optimization problems can be represented as mixed-variable optimization problems. This study presents a heuristic approach for solving mixed-variable optimization ...

Megan Cantwell (Marquee Development) and Lauren Abernethy (The Battery) regularly host sports executives touring their developments. Those visitors often ask about programming, including who handles ...

Researchers from Google Quantum AI report that their quantum processor, Willow, ran an algorithm for a quantum computer that solved a complex physics problem thousands of times faster than the world's ...

Abstract: In this paper, we consider the array synthesis with low sidelobe level using two-way array factor (AF), which is defined as the product of the factors in transmit and receive AFs. Utilizing ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle ...

Article Views are the COUNTER-compliant sum of full text article downloads since November 2008 (both PDF and HTML) across all institutions and individuals. These metrics are regularly updated to ...

The global optimization of integer and mixed integer non-linear problems has a lot of applications in engineering. In this paper a heuristic algorithm is developed using line-up competition and ...

ABSTRACT: In any military operation, reliable logistics is essential to maintaining a combat-effective force. Without the continual resupply of ammunition, food, and other materiel, forces cannot ...

The Progressive Edge-Growth (PEG) algorithm for generating Tanner graphs (parity check matrices) for LDPC codes. Its main goal is to avoid short cycles in the graph, which improves performance under ...
