Keywords:
Local search; Exponential neighborhood; Vehicle routing problem; Matching
Abstract:
We introduce an exponential neighborhood for the Vehicle Routing Problem (vrp) with unit customers' demands, and we show that it can be explored efficiently in polynomial time by reducing its exploration to a particular case of the Restricted Complete Matching (rcm) problem that we prove to be...

Keywords:
Wireless sensor networks; k-coverage; Sensing range; Network management
Abstract:
Some sensor network applications require k-coverage to ensure the quality of surveillance. Meanwhile, energy is another primary concern for sensor networks. In this paper, we investigate the Sensor Scheduling for k-Coverage (SSC) problem which requires to efficiently schedule the sensors, such that the monitored area can be...

Keywords:
Multidimensional knapsack problem; Implicit enumeration; Variable fixing; Reduced costs; Constraint propagation
Abstract:
In a previous work we proposed a variable fixing heuristics for the 0-1 Multidimensional knapsack problem (01MDK). This approach uses fractional optima calculated in hyperplanes which contain the binary optimum. This algorithm obtained best lower bounds on...
