On Sum Coloring of Graphs with Parallel Genetic Algorithms
نویسندگان
چکیده
Chromatic number, chromatic sum and chromatic sum number are important graph coloring characteristics. The paper proves that a parallel metaheuristic like the parallel genetic algorithm (PGA) can be efficiently used for computing approximate sum colorings and finding upper bounds for chromatic sums and chromatic sum numbers for hard– to–color graphs. Suboptimal sum coloring with PGA gives usually much closer upper bounds then theoretical formulas known from the literature.

On sum coloring and sum multi-coloring for restricted families of graphs
We consider the sum coloring (chromatic sum) and sum multi-coloring problems for restricted families of graphs. In particular, we consider the graph classes of proper intersection graphs of axis-parallel rectangles, proper interval graphs, and unit disk graphs. All the above mentioned graph classes belong to a more general graph class of (k+1)clawfree graphs (respectively, for k = 4, 2, 5). We ...
متن کاملOn the Edge-Difference and Edge-Sum Chromatic Sum of the Simple Graphs
For a coloring $c$ of a graph $G$, the edge-difference coloring sum and edge-sum coloring sum with respect to the coloring $c$ are respectively $sum_c D(G)=sum |c(a)-c(b)|$ and $sum_s S(G)=sum (c(a)+c(b))$, where the summations are taken over all edges $abin E(G)$. The edge-difference chromatic sum, denoted by $sum D(G)$, and the edge-sum chromatic sum, denoted by $sum S(G)$, a...
متن کاملJust chromatic exellence in fuzzy graphs
A fuzzy graph is a symmetric binary fuzzy relation on a fuzzy subset. The concept of fuzzy sets and fuzzy relations was introduced by L.A.Zadeh in 1965cite{zl} and further studiedcite{ka}. It was Rosenfeldcite{ra} who considered fuzzy relations on fuzzy sets and developed the theory of fuzzy graphs in 1975. The concepts of fuzzy trees, blocks, bridges and cut nodes in fuzzy graph has been studi...

Graph coloring is a way of coloring the vertices of a graph such that no two adjacent vertices have the same color. Graph coloring problem (GCP) is about finding the smallest number of colors needed to color a given graph. The smallest number of colors needed to color a graph G, is called its chromatic number. GCP is a well-known NP-hard problems and, therefore, heuristic algorithms are usually...
متن کاملA comparison of algorithms for minimizing the sum of earliness and tardiness in hybrid flow-shop scheduling problem with unrelated parallel machines and sequence-dependent setup times
In this paper, the flow-shop scheduling problem with unrelated parallel machines at each stage as well as sequence-dependent setup times under minimization of the sum of earliness and tardiness are studied. The processing times, setup times and due-dates are known in advance. To solve the problem, we introduce a hybrid memetic algorithm as well as a particle swarm optimization algorithm combine...
