There are many applications related to singly linearly constrained quadratic programs subjected to upper and lower bounds. In this paper, a new algorithm based on secant approximat...
Constructive metaheuristics explore a tree of constructive decisions, the topology of which is determined by the way solutions are represented and constructed. Some solution repres...
This paper presents an extension of the terminal assignment problem (TA) in the case that groups of terminals must be assigned together. We analyze this situation by means of an e...
This paper describes an application of a Constructive Genetic Algorithm (CGA) to the Gate Matrix Layout Problem (GMLP). The GMLP happens in very large scale integration (VLSI) desi...
We consider sequential quadratic programming (SQP) methods for solving constrained nonlinear programming problems. It is generally believed that SQP methods are sensitive to the a...
