Flexible implementation of genetic algorithms on FPGAs
In this paper, we propose a technique to flexibly implement genetic algorithms for various problems on FPGAs. For the purpose, we propose a basic architecture for GA which consist...

An Approximation Algorithm for a Bottleneck Traveling Salesman Problem
Consider a truck running along a road. It picks up a load Li at point i and delivers it at i, carrying at most one load at a time. The speed on the various parts of the road in on...

Tolerance Based Contract-or-Patch Heuristic for the Asymmetric TSP
In this paper we improve the quality of a recently suggested class of construction heuristics for the Asymmetric Traveling Salesman Problem (ATSP), namely the Contract-or-Patch heu...

Parallel Ant Colony Optimization for the Traveling Salesman Problem
There are two reasons for parallelizing a metaheuristic if one is interested in performance: (i) given a fixed time to search, the aim is to increase the quality of the solutions f...

Moving-Target TSP and Related Problems
Previous literature on the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) assumed that the sites to be visited are stationary. Motivated by practical applications, we introduce a time-dependent ...

A Comparative Study of Five Parallel Genetic Algorithms Using the Traveling Salesman Problem
Parallel genetic algorithms (PGAs) have been developed to reduce the large execution times that are associated with serial genetic algorithms (SGAs). They have also been used to s...

Using Hopfield Networks to Solve Traveling Salesman Problems Based on Stable State Analysis Technique
In our recent work, a general method called the stable state analysis technique was developed to determine constraints that the weights in the Hopfield energy function must satisf...
