This paper considers the problem of minimizing the response time for a given database workload by a proper choice of indexes. This problem is NP-hard and known in the literature as...
Abstract. We consider a survivable network design problem known as the 2-NodeConnected Steiner Network Problem (2NCON): we are given a weighted undirected graph with a node partiti...

In this paper we formulate the combinatorial auction brokering problem as a Set Packing Problem (SPP) and apply a simulated annealing heuristic to solve SPP. Experimental results ...
We present two hybrid Metaheuristics, a hybrid Iterated Local Search and a hybrid Simulated Annealing, for solving real-world extensions of the Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Wi...
