We investigate a special case of the maximum quadratic assignment problem where one matrix is a product matrix and the other matrix is the distance matrix of a one-dimensional poi...
Abstract. We describe in this paper Ant-P-solver, a generic constraint solver based on the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) metaheuristic. The ACO metaheuristic takes inspiration on t...
We consider in this paper a new lagrangean relaxation with clusters for the Manufacturer’s Pallet Loading Problem (MPLP). The relaxation is based on the MPLP formulated as a Max...

Abstract The multiple knapsack problem (MKP) is a classical combinatorial optimization problem. A recent algorithm for some classes of the MKP is bin-completion, a bin-oriented, br...
The bounded diameter minimum spanning tree problem is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem arising in particular in network design. There exist various exact and metaheuri...
