Graph Partitioning Using Tabu Search
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we present another approach to the balanced minimum cut graph partitioning problem. This approach is based on the meta-heuristic known as tabu search. Our experimental results compare favorably with two of the most effecitive methods available in terms of quality of solutions and computational times. Our experience and experiments suggest that this technique can be applied effectively to many NP-hard combinatorial optimization problems.

Circuit Partitioning Using Atabu
Tabu Search is a simple combinatorial optimization strategy that has been applied with great success in applications ranging from graph coloring to scheduling and space planning. This paper describes the application of the Tabu Searchh1] heuristic to the circuit partitioning problem. Results obtained indicate that in most cases Tabu Search yields netlist partitions with 10% fewer cut nets than ...
متن کاملSolving 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 کاملAn Iterated Tabu Search Approach for the Clique Partitioning Problem
Given an edge-weighted undirected graph with weights specifying dissimilarities between pairs of objects, represented by the vertices of the graph, the clique partitioning problem (CPP) is to partition the vertex set of the graph into mutually disjoint subsets such that the sum of the edge weights over all cliques induced by the subsets is as small as possible. We develop an iterated tabu searc...
متن کاملSystem Level Hardware/Software Partitioning Based on Simulated Annealing and Tabu Search
This paper presents two heuristics for automatic hardware/software partitioning of system level specifications. Partitioning is performed at the granularity of blocks, loops, subprograms, and processes with the objective of performance optimization with a limited hardware and software cost. We define the metric values for partitioning and develop a cost function that guides partitioning towards...
