Restructuring in Combinatorial Optimization
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper addresses a new class of combinatorial problems which consist in restructuring of solutions (as structures) in combinatorial optimization. Two main features of the restructuring process are examined: (i) a cost of the restructuring, (ii) a closeness to a goal solution. This problem corresponds to redesign (improvement, upgrade) of modular systems or solutions. The restructuring approach is described and illustrated for the following combinatorial optimization problems: knapsack problem, multiple choice problem, assignment problem, spanning tree problems. Examples illustrate the restructuring processes.

Towards Integrated Glance To Restructuring in Combinatorial Optimization
The paper focuses on a new class of combinatorial problems which consists in restructuring of solutions (as sets/structures) in combinatorial optimization. Two main features of the restructuring process are examined: (i) a cost of the restructuring, (ii) a closeness to a goal solution. Three types of the restructuring problems are under study: (a) one-stage structuring, (b) multi-stage structur...
متن کاملOptimization of profit and customer satisfaction in combinatorial production and purchase model by genetic algorithm
Optimization of inventory costs is the most important goal in industries. But in many models, the constraints are considered simple and relaxed. Some actual constraints are to consider the combinatorial production and purchase models in multi-products environment. The purpose of this article is to improve the efficiency of inventory management and find the economic order quantity and economic p...
متن کاملWinner Determination in Combinatorial Auctions using Hybrid Ant Colony Optimization and Multi-Neighborhood Local Search
A combinatorial auction is an auction where the bidders have the choice to bid on bundles of items. The WDP in combinatorial auctions is the problem of finding winning bids that maximize the auctioneer’s revenue under the constraint that each item can be allocated to at most one bidder. The WDP is known as an NP-hard problem with practical applications like electronic commerce, production manag...
متن کاملUsing Competing Ant Colonies to Solve k-way Partitioning Problems with Foraging and Raiding Strategies
The self organizing properties of ant colonies are employed to tackle the classical combinatorial optimization problem of graph partitioning. The graph is mapped onto an artificial environment in a manner that preserves the structural information. Ants from a number of colonies compete for resources. This leads to a restructuring of the global environment corresponding to a good partition. On t...
متن کاملA Multilevel k–way Partitioning Algorithm for Finite Element Meshes using Competing Ant Colonies
The self–organizing properties of ant colonies are employed to tackle the classical combinatorial optimization problem of graph partitioning. Structural information from the graph is mapped onto an environment upon which a number of colonies compete for resources. Using Genetic Programming, a Foraging Strategy is evolved which when executed by the ants in each colony leads to a restructuring of...
