Exact and heuristic approaches to solve the Internet shopping optimization problem with delivery costs

Mario C. Lopez-Loces, Jedrzej Musial, Johnatan E. Pecero, Hector J. Fraire-Huacuja, Jacek Blazewicz, Pascal Bouvry (2016)

Similarity:

Internet shopping has been one of the most common online activities, carried out by millions of users every day. As the number of available offers grows, the difficulty in getting the best one among all the shops increases as well. In this paper we propose an integer linear programming (ILP) model and two heuristic solutions, the MinMin algorithm and the cellular processing algorithm, to tackle the Internet shopping optimization problem with delivery costs. The obtained results improve...

Adaptive search heuristics for the generalized assignment problem.

Helena Ramalhinho Lourenço, Daniel Serra (2002)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

The Generalized Assignment Problem consists of assigning a set of tasks to a set of agents at minimum cost. Each agent has a limited amount of a single resource and each task must be assigned to one and only one agent, requiring a certain amount of the agent's resource. We present the application of a MAX-MIN Ant System (MMAS) and a greedy randomized adaptive search procedure (GRASP) to the generalized assignment problem based on hybrid approaches. The MMAS heuristic can be seen as an...

Efficient and Local Efficient Solutions for Assignment Type Problems

Jacques A. Ferland, Pina Marziliano (2010)

RAIRO - Operations Research

Similarity:

In this paper, we analyse the multiobjective problem generated by applying a goal programming approach to deal with linear assignment type problem. We specify sufficient conditions for a solution to be efficient for this problem. The notion of efficiency with respect to a neighborhood is also introduced and characterized through sufficient conditions. Unfortunately, these conditions are not necessary in general.

High-performance simulation-based algorithms for an alpine ski racer's trajectory optimization in heterogeneous computer systems

Roman Dębski (2014)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Effective, simulation-based trajectory optimization algorithms adapted to heterogeneous computers are studied with reference to the problem taken from alpine ski racing (the presented solution is probably the most general one published so far). The key idea behind these algorithms is to use a grid-based discretization scheme to transform the continuous optimization problem into a search problem over a specially constructed finite graph, and then to apply dynamic programming to find an...

Consistency checking within local search applied to the frequency assignment with polarization problem

Michel Vasquez, Audrey Dupont, Djamal Habet (2003)

RAIRO - Operations Research - Recherche Opérationnelle

Similarity:

We present a hybrid approach for the Frequency Assignment Problem with Polarization. This problem, viewed as Max-CSP, is treated as a sequence of decision problems, CSP like. The proposed approach combines the Arc-Consistency techniques with a performed Tabu Search heuristic. The resulting algorithm gives some high quality solutions and has proved its robustness on instances with approximately a thousand variables and nearly ten thousand constraints.
