A New Exact Solution Algorithm for the Job Shop Problem with Sequence-Dependent Setup Times
Abstract. We propose a new solution approach for the Job Shop Problem with Sequence Dependent Setup Times (SDST-JSP). The problem consists in scheduling jobs, each job being a set ...

Deterministic 7/8-Approximation for the Metric Maximum TSP
We present the first 7/8-approximation algorithm for the maximum traveling salesman problem with triangle inequality. Our algorithm is deterministic. This improves over both the r...

Reactive Tabu Search in Unmanned Aerial Reconnaissance Simulations
We apply a Reactive Tabu Search (RTS) heuristic within a discrete-event simulation to solve routing problems for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Our formulation represents this p...
