We address the exact solution of the famous esc instances of the quadratic assignment problem. These are extremely hard instances that remained unsolved—even allowing for a tremendous computing power—by using all previous techniques from the literature. During this challenging task we found that three ideas were particularly useful, and qualified as a breakthrough for our approach. The present ...

An assignment problem (AP) is a meticulous case ofa transportation problem, in which the goal to allocate number of facilities an equal activities at overall maximum profit (or minimum cost, distance, time). It occupies verysignificantrole real physical world. The well-known method applied solve APs Hungarian method, generates optimal solution given AP. A little bit difficulty cover all zero en...

Rapid urban growth is resulting into increase in travel demand and private vehicle ownership in urban areas. In the present scenario the existing infrastructure has failed to match the demand that leads to traffic congestion, vehicular pollution and accidents. With traffic congestion augmentation on the road, delay of commuters has increased and reliability of road network has decreased. Four s...
