Kernelization as Heuristic Structure for the Vertex Cover Problem
Abstract. For solving combinatorial optimisation problems, exact methods accurately exploit the structure of the problem but are tractable only up to a certain size; approximation ...

Optimal Trees for the Parametric Fixed Charge Shortest Paths Problem
We investigate a variant of the Fixed Charge Shortest Paths problem which enumerates the sequence of optimal solutions that arise as the focus shifts from the fixed cost parameter...

Parameterized Algorithms for the Independent Set Problem in Some Hereditary Graph Classes
The maximum independent set problem is NP-complete for graphs in general, but becomes solvable in polynomial time when restricted to graphs in many special classes. The problem is ...

A GRASP with Adaptive Memory for a Period Vehicle Routing Problem
We present some proposals to approximately solve a period vehicle routing problem used to model the extraction of oil from a set of onshore oil wells in Brazil. This problem diffe...

A large neighbourhood search approach to the multi-activity shift scheduling problem
The challenge in shift scheduling lies in the construction of a set of work shifts, which are subject to specific regulations, in order to cover fluctuating staff demands. This pro...
