Preface
This volume contains the papers presented at RCRA 2017, the 24th RCRA International
Workshop on Experimental Evaluation of Algorithms for Solving Problems with Com-
binatorial Explosion (http://rcra.aixia.it/rcra2017), held within the XVI
Conference of the Italian Association for Artificial Intelligence (AI*IA 2017), in Bari,
Italy, on November 14-15, 2017.
Since the 2007 edition, the RCRA workshops have focused on the theme of algorithms in
artificial intelligence, proposing benchmarks to compare them and study their efficiency
through experimental evaluation. Since then, the workshop was organized in Udine (Italy),
Reggio Emilia (Italy), Bologna (Italy), Barcelona (Spain), Rome (Italy), Vienna (Austria),
Pisa (Italy), Ferrara (Italy) and Genova (Italy).
There were 12 submissions. Each submission was reviewed by at least three program
committee members. The committee decided to accept all 12 papers for presentation at
RCRA 2017. Among them 5 are original papers and are included in this volume.
We would like to thank Program Committee members and the external reviewers of RCRA
2017 for their work, as well as to the authors who submitted their articles to the conference.
We also would like to thank the Department of Computer Science, at the University of
Bari and the organizers of AI*IA 2017, for hosting RCRA 2017.
Finally we acknowledge the EasyChair team and CEUR-WS.org that helped us in orga-
nizing the conference and producing the proceedings.
