Abstract
Multi-objective optimization is an NP-hard problem. ADSE (automatic design space exploration) using heuristics has been proved to be an appropriate method in resolving this problem. This paper presents a hyper-heuristic technique to solve the DSE issue in computer architecture. Two algorithms are proposed. A hyper-heuristic layer has been added to the FADSE (framework for automatic design space exploration) and relevant algorithms have been implemented. The benefits of already existing multi-objective algorithms have been joined in order to strengthen the proposed algorithms. The proposed algorithms, namely RRSNS (round-robin scheduling NSGA-II and SPEA2) and RSNS (random scheduling NSGA-II and SPEA2) have been evaluated for the ADSE problem. The results have been compared with NSGA-II and SPEA2 algorithms. Results show that the proposed methodologies give competitive outcomes in comparison with NSGA-II and SPEA2.
