Outcome space range reduction method for global optimization of sum of affine ratios problem

Hongwei Jiao, Sanyang Liu, Jingben Yin, Yingfeng Zhao (2016)

Open Mathematics

Many algorithms for globally solving sum of affine ratios problem (SAR) are based on equivalent problem and branch-and-bound framework. Since the exhaustiveness of branching rule leads to a significant increase in the computational burden for solving the equivalent problem. In this study, a new range reduction method for outcome space of the denominator is presented for globally solving the sum of affine ratios problem (SAR). The proposed range reduction method offers a possibility to delete a large...

Parallel approximation to high multiplicity scheduling problems V I A smooth multi-valued quadratic programming

Maria Serna, Fatos Xhafa (2008)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

We consider the parallel approximability of two problems arising from high multiplicity scheduling, namely the unweighted model with variable processing requirements and the weighted model with identical processing requirements. These two problems are known to be modelled by a class of quadratic programs that are efficiently solvable in polynomial time. On the parallel setting, both problems are P-complete and hence cannot be efficiently solved in parallel unless P = NC. To deal with the parallel...

Parallel dynamic programming algorithms: Multitransputer systems

Jan Sadecki (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The present paper discusses real parallel computations. On the basis of a selected group of dynamic programming algorithms, a number of factors affecting the efficiency of parallel computations such as, e.g., the way of distributing tasks, the interconnection structure between particular elements of the parallel system or the way of organizing of interprocessor communication are analyzed. Computations were implemented in the parallel multitransputer SUPER NODE 1000 system using from 5 to 50 transputers....

Parallelization of artificial immune systems using a massive parallel approach via modern GPUs

Khun, Jiří, Šimeček, Ivan (2015)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

Parallelization is one of possible approaches for obtaining better results in terms of algorithm performance and overcome the limits of the sequential computation. In this paper, we present a study of parallelization of the opt-aiNet algorithm which comes from Artificial Immune Systems, one part of large family of population based algorithms inspired by nature. The opt-aiNet algorithm is based on an immune network theory which incorporates knowledge about mammalian immune systems in order to create...
