A Parallel Tabu Search Algorithm Based on Partitioning Principle for TSPs
نویسندگان
چکیده
We presented a parallel tabu search (PTS) algorithm for the traveling salesman problem (TSP), which is NP-hard. To parallelize tabu search (TS) algorithm efficiently, the search space decomposition based on partition principle was used to balance the computing load, while exploitation in subspace had been boosted by an adaptive search strategy of intensification and diversification. Numerical results illustrated this algorithm was efficient and easy to implement.

Solving the tandem AGV network design problem using tabu search: Cases of maximum workload and workload balance with fixed and non-fixed number of loops
A tandem AGV configuration connects all cells of a manufacturing area by means of non-overlapping, sin-gle-vehicle closed loops. Each loop has at least one additional P/D station, provided as an interface between adjacent loops. This study describes the development of three tabu search algorithms for the design of tandem AGV systems. The first algorithm was developed based on the basic definiti...

متن کاملTabu-KM: A Hybrid Clustering Algorithm Based on Tabu Search Approach
The clustering problem under the criterion of minimum sum of squares is a non-convex and non-linear program, which possesses many locally optimal values, resulting that its solution often falls into these trap and therefore cannot converge to global optima solution. In this paper, an efficient hybrid optimization algorithm is developed for solving this problem, called Tabu-KM. It gathers the ...
متن کاملCooperative Multi - Thread Parallel Tabu
In this work, we propose a cooperative multi-thread parallel tabu search heuristic for the circuit partitioning problem. This procedure is based on the cooperation of multiple search threads. Each thread implements a diierent variant of a sequential tabu search algorithm, using a diierent combination of initial solution algorithm and move attribute deenition. These threads communicate by exchan...

The paper presents two heuristics for hardwarelsoftware partitioning of system level spec@cations. The main objective is to achieve pedormance optimization with a limited hardware and software cost. We consider minimization of communication cost and improvement of the overall parallelism as essential criteria. One ofthe heuristics is based on simulated annealing and the other on tabu search.
