Abstract Firefly algorithm (FA) is a new random swarm search optimization that modeled after movement and the mutual attraction of flashing fireflies. The number fitness comparisons attractions in FA varies depending on model. A large can induce oscillations, while small cause early convergence add to computational time complexity. This study aims offer H-GA–FA, hybrid combines two metaheuristi...

The purpose of this article is to analyze ways integrate the project approach into educational programs, taking account experience Russian and foreign universities. An analysis research problem field has shown that over past 10 years higher education institutions have significantly changed traditional programs moving open curricula, as well problem-based approaches. In general, modification aim...
