An Empirical Analysis of Approximation Algorithms for Euclidean TSP
- The Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) is perhaps the most famous optimization problem in the set NP-hard. Many problems that are natural applications in computer science and engin...

A genetic algorithm for privacy preserving combinatorial optimization
We propose a protocol for a local search and a genetic algorithm for the distributed traveling salesman problem (TSP). In the distributed TSP, information regarding the cost funct...

To Fill or Not to Fill: The Gas Station Problem
In this paper we study several routing problems that generalize shortest paths and the Traveling Salesman Problem. We consider a more general model that incorporates the actual co...

Approximation Algorithms for the Directed k-Tour and k-Stroll Problems
We consider two natural generalizations of the Asymmetric Traveling Salesman problem: the k-Stroll and the k-Tour problems. The input to the k-Stroll problem is a directed n-verte...

Guided Local Search for Solving SAT and Weighted MAX-SAT Problems
In this paper, we show how Guided Local Search (GLS) can be applied to the SAT problem and show how the resulting algorithm can be naturally extended to solve the weighted MAX-SAT ...
