Complexity results for minimum sum edge coloring
In the Minimum Sum Edge Coloring problem we have to assign positive integers to the edges of a graph such that adjacent edges receive different integers and the sum of the assigned numbers is minimal. We show that the problem is (a) NP-hard for planar bipartite graphs with maximum degree 3, (b) NP-hard for 3-regular planar graphs, (c) NP-hard for partial 2-trees, and (d) APX-hard for bipartite ...
متن کاملMinimum Sum Coloring of P4-sparse graphs
In this paper, we study the Minimum Sum Coloring (MSC) problem on P4-sparse graphs. In the MSC problem, we aim to assign natural numbers to vertices of a graph such that adjacent vertices get different numbers, and the sum of the numbers assigned to the vertices is minimum. First, we introduce the concept of maximal sequence associated with an optimal solution of the MSC problem of any graph. N...
متن کاملEdge Coloring with Minimum Reload/Changeover Costs
In an edge-colored graph, a traversal cost occurs at a vertex along a path when consecutive edges with different colors are traversed. The value of the traversal cost depends only on the colors of the traversed edges. This concept leads to two global cost measures, namely the reload cost and the changeover cost, that have been studied in the literature and have various applications in telecommu...
متن کاملGreedy Algorithms for the Minimum Sum Coloring Problem
In this paper we present our study of greedy algorithms for solving the minimum sum coloring problem (MSCP). We propose two families of greedy algorithms for solving MSCP, and suggest improvements to the two greedy algorithms most often referred to in the literature for solving the graph coloring problem (GCP): DSATUR [1] and RLF [2].
متن کاملA memetic algorithm for the Minimum Sum Coloring Problem
Given an undirected graph G, the Minimum Sum Coloring Problem (MSCP) is to find a legal assignment of colors (represented by natural numbers) to each vertex of G such that the total sum of the colors assigned to the vertices is minimized. This paper presents a memetic algorithm for MSCP based on a tabu search procedure with two neighborhoods and a multi-parent crossover operator. Experiments on...
