Solving the error correcting code problem with parallel hybrid heuristics
Some telecommunication systems can not afford the cost of repeating a corrupted message. Instead, the message should be somewhat “corrected” by the receiver. In these cases a...

A column generation approach to train timetabling on a corridor
We propose heuristic and exact algorithms for the (periodic and non-periodic) train timetabling problem on a corridor that are based on the solution of the LP relaxation of an ILP...

A hybrid heuristic approach for solving the generalized traveling salesman problem
The generalized traveling salesman problem (GTSP) is an NPhard problem that extends the classical traveling salesman problem by partitioning the nodes into clusters and looking fo...

A Kernighan-Lin Local Improvement Heuristic That Solves Some Hard Problems in Genetic Algorithms
We present a Kernighan-Lin style local improvement heuristic for genetic algorithms. We analyze the run-time cost of the heuristic. We demonstrate through experiments that the heur...
