Position-Guided Tabu Search Algorithm for the Graph Coloring Problem
A very undesirable behavior of any heuristic algorithm is to be stuck in some specific parts of the search space, in particular in the basins of attraction of the local optima. Wh...

Multiple Variable Neighborhood Search Enriched with ILP Techniques for the Periodic Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows
Abstract. In this work we extend a VNS for the periodic vehicle routing problem with time windows (PVRPTW) to a multiple VNS (mVNS) where several VNS instances are applied cooperat...
