%0 Journal Article %T Using Cultural Algorithm for the Fixed-Spectrum Frequency Assignment Problem %A J. Alami %A A. El Imrani %J Journal of Mobile Communication %D 2012 %I %X In this study the problem of the fixed-spectrum frequency assignment problem, where the objective is to minimize the cost due to the interference arising in a solution, is studied and solved using a cultural algorithm which is refined by a deterministic local search heuristic. Computational results, obtained for 8 well-known benchmarks problem, confirm the effectiveness of cultural algorithm. %U http://www.medwellonline.net/abstract/?doi=jmcomm.2008.1.9
