✦ Synopsis


We develop a new optimization algorithm that combines the genetic algorithm and a recently proposed global optimization algorithm called the nested partitions method. The resulting hybrid algorithm retains the global perspective of the nested partitions method and the local search capabilities of the genetic algorithm. We also present a detailed application of the new algorithm to a NP-hard product design problem and it is found empirically to outperform a pure genetic algorithm implementation, particularly for large problems.

We consider the problem of designing a distributed computing system for handling a set of repetitive tasks on a periodic basis. Tasks assigned to di!erent processors need communication link capacity, tasks executing on the same processor do not. The aim is to develop a design of minimum total cost t
