Evolving heuristically difficult instances of combinatorial problems
When evaluating a heuristic for a combinatorial problem, randomly generated instances of the problem may not provide a thorough exploration of the heuristic's performance, an...

The quadratic multiple knapsack problem and three heuristic approaches to it
The quadratic multiple knapsack problem extends the quadratic knapsack problem with K knapsacks, each with its own capacity Ck. A greedy heuristic fills the knapsacks one at a tim...
