We propose a new heuristic for the solution of the quadratic assignment problem. The heuristic combines ideas from tabu search and genetic algorithms. Run times are very short comp...
In this paper we study a complex real-world workforce scheduling problem. We propose a method of splitting the problem into smaller parts and solving each part using exhaustive sea...

The problem of finding k minimum energy, edge-disjoint paths in wireless networks (MEEP) arises in the context of routing and belongs to the class of range assignment problems. A ...
Abstract. The quadratic assignment problem arises in a variety of practical settings. It is known to be among the hardest combinatorial problems for exact algorithms. Therefore, a ...
We consider the generalized assignment problem in which the objective is to find a minimum cost assignment of a set of jobs to a set of agents subject to resource constraints. Th...
