Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research explains how to implement a geometry-inspired optimization technique called spiral dynamics optimization (SDO), an alternative to Calculus-based techniques ...

The goal of a combinatorial optimization problem is to find the best ordering of a set of discrete items. A classic combinatorial optimization challenge is the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). The ...

We have optimized and parallelized the GENEHUNTER-TWOLOCUS program that allows to perform linkage analysis with two trait loci in the multimarker context. The optimization of the serial program, ...
