Dynamic Bin Packing (DBP) is a variant of classical bin packing, which assumes that items may arrive and depart at arbitrary times. Existing works on DBP generally aim to minimize the maximum number of bins ever used in the packing. In this paper, we consider a new version of the DBP problem, namely, the MinTotal DBP problem which targets at minimizing the total cost of the bins used over time. It...
This paper proposes a newevolutionary algorithm-based methodology for optimal crowdevacuation planning. In the proposed methodology, a heuristic-based evacuation scheme is firstly introduced. The key idea is to divide the region into a set of sub-regions and use a heuristic rule to dynamically recommend an exit to agents in each sub-region. Then, an evolutionary framework based on the Cartesian Genetic...
For a scalable Massively Multiplayer Online Game (MMOG), interest management (IM) is an essential component to reduce unnecessary network traffic. As Area-Of-Interest (AOI) defines each player's interests, an entity normally maintains a subscriber list of players whose AOIs cover the position of the entity. To maintain the subscriber list, players are required to send AOI updates. Unfortunately, AOI...
