The Set Covering Problem (SCP) is a representation of a kind of combinatorial optimization problem which has been applied in several problems in the real world. In this work is used the binary version of Teaching-Learning-Based Optimization algorithm (TLBO), which works with two phases known as teacher and learner phases in this way emulates the behaviour into a classroom, besides this problem is...
This paper presents metaheuristic Shuffled Frog Leaping Algorithm (SFLA) to solve the Set Covering Problem (SCP), the SFLA is inspired by the social behavior of frogs, and is being applied to solve many optimization problems. The proposed algorithm includes eight binarization functions and discretization method for resolving the binary representation of the SCP. In the 65 instances of SCP we obtains...
A Software Engineering project depends significantly on team performance, as does any activity that involves human interaction. In the last years, the traditional perspective on software development is changing and Agile methods have received considerable attention. Among other attributes, the agilists claim that fostering Creativity is one of the keys to response to common problems and challenges...
