We present a fast local search algorithm that finds an improved solution (if there is any) in the k-exchange neighborhood of the given solution to an instance of WEIGHTED FEEDBACK...

Abstract. We present a software tool, called EasySyn++, for the automatic synthesis of the source code for a set of stochastic local search (SLS) algorithms. EasySyn++ uses C++ as ...
Companies in the concrete industry are facing the following scheduling problem on a daily basis: concrete produced at several plants has to be delivered at customers' constru...
