The increased focus on heuristics for the approximate solution of integer programs has led to more sophisticated analysis methods for studying their performance. This paper is concerned with the worst ...

Often, a heuristic is a "rule of thumb" one might have learned. In computer science, a heuristic is an algorithm which consistently performs quickly and/or provides good results.

In this paper we have introduced a heuristic algorithm which automatically maps a given set of intellectual property onto a generic regular network-on-chip (NoC) architecture and constructs a ...

As such problems may not be solved in closed form, we develop a heuristic algorithm and test it with realistic credit portfolio data. The application of this algorithm could support banks as ...

The researchers are seeking to address these concerns and make QKD viable by introducing a new metric called "maximum number of affected requests" (maxNAR) to measure worst-case attack impact, then ...
