A (1-1/e)-approximation algorithm for the generalized assignment problem
We give a (1 - 1/e)-approximation algorithm for the Max-Profit Generalized Assignment Problem (Max-GAP) with fixed profits when the profit (but not necessarily the size) of every ...

An efficient approximation for the Generalized Assignment Problem
We present a simple family of algorithms for solving the Generalized Assignment Problem (GAP). Our technique is based on a novel combinatorial translation of any algorithm for the...

A Branch-and-Price Algorithm for the Multilevel Generalized Assignment Problem
The multilevel generalized assignment problem (MGAP) is a variation of the generalized assignment problem, in which agents can execute tasks at different efficiency levels with di...

Distributed Lagrangean relaxation protocol for the generalized mutual assignment problem
Abstract. The generalized assignment problem (GAP) is a typical NP-hard problem and has been studied for many years mainly in the operations research community. The goal of the GAP...

An improved hybrid genetic algorithm for the generalized assignment problem
We consider the generalized assignment problem in which the objective is to find a minimum cost assignment of a set of jobs to a set of agents subject to resource constraints. Th...
