Abstract. The graph partitioning problem consists of dividing the vertices of a graph into a set of balanced parts, such that the number of edges connecting vertices in different ...
Heuristic algorithms for coloring the edges of large undirected single-edge graphs with (or very close to) the minimal number of colors are presented. Compared to simulated anneal...
