We empirically study phase transitions of the asymmetric Traveling Salesman. Using random instances of up to 1,500 cities, we show that many properties of the problem, including t...
Abstract. This paper introduces a generator that creates problem instances for the Euclidean symmetric travelling salesman problem. To fit real world problems, we look at maps con...
We discuss how phase-transitions may be detected in computationally hard problems in the context of anytime algorithms. Treating the computational time, value and utility functions...
We present a hybrid solver (called GELATO) that exploits the potentiality of a Constraint Programming (CP) environment (Gecode) and of a Local Search (LS) framework (EasyLocal++ )....

Abstract. This paper introduces a new algorithm, based on the concept of ejection chains, to effectively target vehicle routing problems with time window constraints (VRPTW). Ejec...
