The goal of a combinatorial optimization problem is to find a set of distinct integer values that minimizes some cost function. The most famous example is the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). There ...

When working in applications you might often find that the source code has become so complex that it is difficult to understand and maintain. Fluent interfaces and method chaining are two concepts ...

Take advantage of extension methods to add functionality to existing types without needing to modify or derive from those original types. In the C# programming language, extension methods enable you ...

Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research uses full code samples to detail an evolutionary algorithm technique that apparently hasn't been published before. The goal of a combinatorial optimization ...
