Abstract. A well established heuristic approach for solving various bicriteria optimization problems is to enumerate the set of Pareto optimal solutions, typically using some kind ...

The Karmarkar-Karp differencing algorithm is the best known polynomial time heuristic for the number partitioning problem, fundamental in both theoretical computer science and stat...
Recent work [2] [5] [11] [12] [14] has illustrated the promise of multilevel approaches for partitioning large circuits. Multilevel partitioning recursively clusters the instance ...

This paper describes an algorithm for solving large state-space MDPs (represented as factored MDPs) using search by successive refinement in the space of non-homogeneous partition...
