This paper deals with the Assembly Line Balancing Problem considering incompatibilities between the tasks with the aim of, first, minimizing the number of workstations and, then, ...
We present a new implementation of a widely used swap-based local search procedure for the p-median problem, proposed in 1968 by Teitz and Bart. Our method produces the same outpu...
Branch-and-bound and branch-and-cut use search trees to identify optimal solutions to combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, we introduce an iterative search strategy...
The 0 1 MultidimensionalKnapsack Problem (0 1 MKP) is a NP-complete problem. Its resolution for large scale instances requires a prohibitive processing time. In this paper we prop...
Abstract. In this paper the author presents three approaches to parallel Tabu Search, applied to several instances of the Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem with soft Time Windows...
