Solving Periodic Timetable Optimisation Problems by Modulo Simplex Calculations
In the last 15 years periodic timetable problems have found much interest in the combinatorial optimization community. We will focus on the optimisation task to minimise a weighted...

Theoretical Properties of Two ACO Approaches for the Traveling Salesman Problem
Ant colony optimization (ACO) has been widely used for different combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, we investigate ACO algorithms with respect to their runtime beh...

Expressive Banner Ad Auctions and Model-Based Online Optimization for Clearing
We present the design of a banner advertising auction which is considerably more expressive than current designs. We describe a general model of expressive ad contracts/bidding an...

Rigorous Analyses for the Combination of Ant Colony Optimization and Local Search
Abstract. Ant colony optimization (ACO) is a metaheuristic that produces good results for a wide range of combinatorial optimization problems. Often such successful applications us...
