We study a discrete problem of scheduling activities of several types under the constraint that at most a single activity can be scheduled to any one period. Applications of such ...
Abstract- Simulated annealing (SA) is an effective general heuristic method for solving many combinatorial optimization problems. This paper deals with two problems in SA. One is ...
