Radio networks of universal mobile telecommunication system (UMTS) need accurate planning and optimisation, and many factors not seen in second generation (2G) networks must be considered. However, planning and optimisation of UMTS radio networks are... Read More about UMTS base station location planning: A mathematical model and heuristic optimisation algorithms.

This paper presents a novel approach to clustering using a simple accuracy-based Learning Classifier System with a modification to the original YCS fitness function has been found to improve the identification of less-separated data sets. Our approac... Read More about Ycsc: a modified clustering technique based on lcs.

Optimisation of WCDMA radio networks with consideration of link-level performance factors (2007)
Journal Article

Parameter control in evolutionary algorithms (2007)
Journal Article
Eiben, A., Michalewicz, Z., Schoenauer, M., & Smith, J. (2007). Parameter control in evolutionary algorithms. Studies in Computational Intelligence, 54, 19-46. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-69432-8_2

The issue of setting the values of various parameters of an evolutionary algorithm is crucial for good performance. In this paper we discuss how to do this, beginning with the issue of whether these values are best set in advance or are best changed... Read More about Parameter control in evolutionary algorithms.

On replacement strategies in steady state evolutionary algorithms (2007)
Journal Article
Smith, J. (2007). On replacement strategies in steady state evolutionary algorithms. Evolutionary Computation, 15(1), 29-59. https://doi.org/10.1162/evco.2007.15.1.29

Steady State models of Evolutionary Algorithms are widely used, yet surprisingly little attention has been paid to the effects arising from different replacement strategies. This paper explores the use of mathematical models to characterise the selec... Read More about On replacement strategies in steady state evolutionary algorithms.

Data intensive and network aware (DIANA) grid scheduling (2007)
Journal Article
McClatchey, R., Anjum, A., Stockinger, H., Ali, A., Willers, I., & Thomas, M. (2007). Data intensive and network aware (DIANA) grid scheduling. Journal of Grid Computing, 5(1), 43-64. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10723-006-9059-z

In Grids scheduling decisions are often made on the basis of jobs being either data or computation intensive: in data intensive situations jobs may be pushed to the data and in computation intensive situations data may be pulled to the jobs. This kin... Read More about Data intensive and network aware (DIANA) grid scheduling.

Struggling against selfishness and black hole attacks in MANETs (2007)
Journal Article
Djenouri, D., & Badache, N. (2008). Struggling against selfishness and black hole attacks in MANETs. Wireless Communications and Mobile Computing, 8(6), 689-704. https://doi.org/10.1002/wcm.493

Since mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are infrastructureless and multi-hop by nature, transmitting packets from any node to another usually relies on services provided by intermediate nodes. This reliance introduces a new vulnerability; one node coul... Read More about Struggling against selfishness and black hole attacks in MANETs.

Adaptive hypermedia system interoperability: A 'real world' evaluation (2007)
Journal Article
Cristea, A., Stewart, C., Brailsford, T., & Cristea, P. (2007). Adaptive hypermedia system interoperability: A 'real world' evaluation
