Decision-Theoretic Simulated Annealing
The choice of a good annealing schedule is necessary for good performance of simulated annealing for combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, we pose the simulated anne...

Deterministic Sampling Algorithms for Network Design
For several NP-hard network design problems, the best known approximation algorithms are remarkably simple randomized algorithms called Sample-Augment algorithms in [11]. The algor...

Comparison of similarity measures for the multi-objective vehicle routing problem with time windows
The Vehicle Routing Problem can be seen as a fusion of two well known combinatorial problems, the Travelling Salesman Problem and Bin Packing Problem. It has several variants, the...

Average case analysis for batched disk scheduling and increasing subsequences
We consider the problem of estimating the tour length and finding approximation algorithms for the asymmetric traveling salesman problem arising from the disk scheduling problem. ...
