An Enumerative Algorithm for the Frequency Assignment Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an algorithm to solve the Frequency Assignment Problem for mobile cellular systems and radio and television broadcasting. Frequencies must be assigned to transmitters in order to meet interference requirements and so that the overall signal/noise ratio is satisfactory. The basic scheme is an exact enumerative method, provided with ̄xing criteria to reduce the size of the instances. Larger instances are solved by applying the algorithm to suitable subinstances, eventually extending the solutions found. We were able to solve large real life instances arising in radio broadcasting, and mobile cellular systems. Computational results outperform previous results reported in the literature.

متن کاملAn algorithm for integrated worker assignment, mixed-model two-sided assembly line balancing and bottleneck analysis
This paper addresses a multi-objective mixed-model two-sided assembly line balancing and worker assignment with bottleneck analysis when the task times are dependent on the worker’s skill. This problem is known as NP-hard class, thus, a hybrid cyclic-hierarchical algorithm is presented for solving it. The algorithm is based on Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Theory of Constraints (TOC) an...
