A. Bolat, Models and a Genetic Algorithm for Static Aircraft-Gate Assignment Problem, The Journal of the Operational Research Society, Vol. 52, No. 10 (Oct., 2001), pp. 1107-1120 ...

We present a genetic algorithm for the multiple-choice integer program that finds an optimal solution with probability one (though it is typically used as a heuristic). General constraints are relaxed ...

More importantly, biologists can trace the source of certain genetic diseases. Traditionally, multiple sequence alignment algorithms use computationally complex heuristics to align the sequences.
