New perspectives on the optimal placement of detectors for suicide bombers using metaheuristics
Carlos Cotta, José E. Gallardo
We consider an operational model of suicide bombing attacks -- an increasingly prevalent form of terrorism -- against specific targets, and the use of protective countermeasures ba…
Metaheuristic approaches to the placement of suicide bomber detectors
Carlos Cotta, José E. Gallardo
Suicide bombing is an infamous form of terrorism that is becoming increasingly prevalent in the current era of global terror warfare. We consider the case of targeted attacks of th…
Evolutionary Algorithms for Optimizing Emergency Exit Placement in Indoor Environments
Carlos Cotta, José E. Gallardo
The problem of finding the optimal placement of emergency exits in an indoor environment to facilitate the rapid and orderly evacuation of crowds is addressed in this work. A cellu…
A GRASP-based memetic algorithm with path relinking for the far from most string problem
José E. Gallardo, Carlos Cotta
The FAR FROM MOST STRING PROBLEM (FFMSP) is a string selection problem. The objective is to find a string whose distance to other strings in a certain input set is above a given th…
