This paper describes how to solve very large TravelingSalesman Problems heuristically by the parallelization of self-organizing maps on cluster architectures. The used way of para...

We introduce a novel combinatorial optimization problem: the one-commodity traveling salesman problem with selective pickup and delivery (1-TSP-SELPD), characterized by the fact th...
We define the timetable constrained distance minimization problem (TCDMP) which is a sports scheduling problem applicable for tournaments where the total travel distance must be mi...
Abstract- Simulated annealing (SA) is an effective general heuristic method for solving many combinatorial optimization problems. This paper deals with two problems in SA. One is ...
Abstract. We proposed a new search heuristic using the scuba diving metaphor. This approach is based on the concept of evolvability and tends to exploit neutrality which exists in ...
