A branch and bound method for the job-shop problem with sequence-dependent setup times
This paper deals with the job-shop scheduling problem with sequencedependent setup times. We propose a new method to solve the makespan minimization problem to optimality. The met...

Strong Combination of Ant Colony Optimization with Constraint Programming Optimization
We introduce an approach which combines ACO (Ant Colony Optimization) and IBM ILOG CP Optimizer for solving COPs (Combinatorial Optimization Problems). The problem is modeled using...
