چکیده

Computer scientists are expected to be problem solvers, yet the current structure of algorithm education does not facilitate learning the necessary skills to do so. Learning objectives for algorithm education are defined and Bloom and SOLO taxonomy are employed to evaluate their complexity. Current algorithm curriculum, like that of Michigan State University, is examined and evaluated for e↵ectiveness.

Solving random inverse heat conduction problems using PSO and genetic algorithms

The main purpose of this paper is to solve an inverse random differential equation problem using evolutionary algorithms. Particle Swarm Algorithm and Genetic Algorithm are two algorithms that are used in this paper. In this paper, we solve the inverse problem by solving the inverse random differential equation using Crank-Nicholson's method. Then, using the particle swarm optimization algorith...

A Hybrid Modified Meta-heuristic Algorithm for Solving the Traveling Salesman Problem

The traveling salesman problem (TSP) is one of the most important combinational optimization problems that have nowadays received much attention because of its practical applications in industrial and service problems. In this paper, a hybrid two-phase meta-heuristic algorithm called MACSGA used for solving the TSP is presented. At the first stage, the TSP is solved by the modified ant colony s...

Cat swarm optimization for solving the open shop scheduling problem

This paper aims to prove the efficiency of an adapted computationally intelligence-based behavior of cats called the cat swarm optimization algorithm, that solves the open shop scheduling problem, classified as NP-hard which its importance appears in several industrial and manufacturing applications. The cat swarm optimization algorithm was applied to solve some benchmark instances from the lit...

Cuckoo search via Lévy flights for the capacitated vehicle routing problem

For this paper, we explored the implementation of the cuckoo search algorithm applied to the capacitated vehicle routing problem. The cuckoo search algorithm was implemented with Lévy flights with the 2-opt and double-bridge operations, and with 500 iterations for each run. The algorithm was tested on the problem instances from the Augerat benchmark dataset. The algorithm did not perform well o...
