Come and join our Chinese New Year Celebration!

Well, here we come to the end of 2008!
Actually, I really don’t know what to write right now. This semester I didn’t wrote as much as before (am I busy?). Well, just because this is the end of this year, I push myself to write here, at least for a short flashback. Ok, let me […]

 Just few hours ago, I came to a quite big concert (maybe for the first time in my life). It was Emi Fujita who sangs 22 songs accompanied by 4 acoustic players. These are the songs sorted chronologically:

Tears in Heaven
I’ll Have To Say I Love You In A Song
All My Loving

A co-supervisor also involved now, he is Dr. Ho Nhu Binh from SIMTech. So, mainly, now I’m dealing with memetic algorithm (evolutionary algorithm + local search). In a way, it’s a totally new thing for me. […]

Come and join, IEC youth fellowship, this Sat. See the poster below.

Finally, I’ve decided my topic for URECA. It is “Bee Colony Optimization : Travelling Salesman and Jobshop Scheduling” under Asst Prof Yoke Hean Low, Malcolm.

Mainly, I will studying some meta-heuristics algorithm for some operational-research problems. Specifically, I will do some investigation on bee colony optimization (which just popularized this year) for solving some benchmark problem […]
