Two classes of Quadratic Assignment Problems that are solvable as Linear Assignment Problems
The Quadratic Assignment Problem is one of the hardest combinatorial optimization problems known. We present two new classes of instances of the Quadratic Assignment Problem that can be reduced to the Linear Assignment Problem and give polynomial time procedures to check whether or not an instance is an element of these classes. © 2011 Elsevier B.V.

متن کاملSolving Quadratic Assignment Problems
We describe a branch-and-bound algorithm for the quadratic assignment problem (QAP) that uses a convex quadratic programming (QP) relaxation to obtain a bound at each node. The QP subproblems are approximately solved using the Frank-Wolfe algorithm, which in this case requires the solution of a linear assignment problem on each iteration. Our branching strategy makes extensive use of dual infor...
متن کاملUsing well-solvable quadratic assignment problems for VLSI interconnect applications
This paper presents several optimization problems occurring in VLSI interconnect, Networks on Chip (NoC) design and 3D VLSI integration, all possessing closed-form solutions obtained by well-solvable Quadratic Assignment Problems (QAP). The first type of problems deals with the optimal ordering of signals in a bus bundle such that the switching power, delay and noise interference areminimized.W...
متن کاملSolving Large Quadratic Assignment Problems
Quadratic Assignment problems are in practice among the most diicult to solve in the class of NP-complete problems. The only successful approach hitherto has been Branch-and-Bound-based algorithms, but such algorithms are crucially dependent on good bound functions to limit the size of the space searched. Much work has been done to identify such functions for the QAP, but with limited success. ...
متن کاملExact solution of emerging quadratic assignment problems
We report on a growing class of assignment problems that are increasingly of interest and very challenging in terms of the difficulty they pose to attempts at exact solution. These problems address economic issues in the location and design of factories, hospitals, depots, transportation hubs and military bases. Others involve improvements in communication network design. In this article we sur...
