Hyper-heuristics have emerged as a way to raise the level of generality of search techniques
for computational search problems. This is in contrast to many approaches, which represent …

HyFlex is a recently proposed software framework for implementing hyper-heuristics and
domain-independent heuristic optimisation algorithms [13]. Although it was originally …

Certain problems have characteristics that present difficulties for metaheuristics: their
objective function may be either prohibitively expensive, or they may only give a partial …

In this paper a hyper-heuristic algorithm is designed and developed for its application to the
Jawbreaker puzzle. Jawbreaker is an addictive game consisting in a matrix of colored balls …

Hyper-heuristics are a class of high-level search methodologies which operate over a
search space of heuristics rather than a search space of solutions. Hyper-heuristic research …

The influence of infrastructural modifications on port and waterway locks to the lock system's
capacity cannot be estimated accurately. This paper introduces a simulation model and …

The present paper considers a hybrid local search approach to the Eternity II puzzle and to
unsigned, rectangular, edge matching puzzles in general. Both an original mixed-integer …

Real-world combinatorial optimisation problems (COPs) faced in ports are often subject to
dynamics and uncertainties, ie the problem instance is not completely known in advance …

Many real-world combinatorial optimisation problems (COPs) are computationally hard
problems and search methods are frequently preferred as solution techniques. Traditionally …
