Visiting Professor Ajith Abraham and Postdoc Crina Grosan, both Q2S, have been offered a Best paper Award at the Second IEEE International Conference on Digital Information Management (ICDIM 2007)for the paper entitled: "Exploration of Multiple Roots for a Polynomial System" Abstract: Several problems from engineering, chemistry, medicine, etc. can be formulated as a system of equations. Finding a solution for such a system sometimes requires high computational efforts. There are situations when these systems have multiple solutions. For such problems, the task is to find as many solutions as possible. In this paper, we deal with such systems of equations, which have multiple solutions and we attempt to solve them using two different approaches. Both approaches transform the problem into an optimization problem. The two approaches proposed in are (1) a modified line search and (2) an evolutionary algorithm. Several experiments are performed in order to emphasize the advantages and disadvantages of the two methods. The Conference received 219 papers and 83 papers were accepted for presentation. The selection of the best paper was done by a nine member panel based on technical contents; presentation, reviewers feed back and overall assessment.
