Abstract The multiple knapsack problem (MKP) is a classical combinatorial optimization problem. A recent algorithm for some classes of the MKP is bin-completion, a bin-oriented, br...
Instead of selling advertisement spots one by one, some French satellite channels decided in 2002 to modify their commercial offer in order to sell packages of spots. These new g...
Abstract The split delivery vehicle routing problem (SDVRP) relaxes routing restrictions forcing unique deliveries to customers and allows multiple vehicles to satisfy customer dem...
This paper develops two new algorithms for solving a finite constraint satisfaction problem (FCSP) in parallel. In particular, we give a parallel algorithm for the EREW PRAM model...
The mean running time of a Las Vegas algorithm can often be dramatically reduced by periodically restarting it with a fresh random seed. The optimal restart schedule depends on th...
