In elastic optical networks, the use of network coding (NC) represents a new dimension to further optimize spectrum efficiency, and indeed, combining NC and dedicated path protection has paved the way ...

This repository presents the MATLAB plotting approach for performing Sensitivity Analysis (SA) for student competitions. It is used here specifically to evaluate score sensitivity. It helps teams ...

This paper proposes a hybrid metaheuristic, namely, the molecular dynamics optimization (MDO), to solve the task assignment problem (TAP). The main ideas of MDO stem from the molecular dynamics ...
