چکیده

Two new algorithms, SPMF and SPMF, for finding the complete chain of solutions of the selection model are presented in this paper. A special kind of residual path, called a λ-directed simple residual path, is identified to be the only kind of residual path necessary for SPMF. By augmenting the right amount of flows along the λ-directed simple residual paths, the new algorithms are monotone convergent. SPMF replaces the path-wise flow augmentation by flow-redistribution at each node, which provides a factor of ten speed-up for all the large datasets tested.

Balancing Applied to Maximum Network Flow

We explore balancing as a definitional and algorithmic tool for finding minimum cuts and maximum flows in ordinary and parametric networks. We show that a standard monotonic parametric maximum flow problem can be formulated as a problem of computing a particular maximum flow that is balanced in an appropriate sense. We present a divide-and-conquer algorithm to compute such a balanced flow in a ...

Experimental Evaluation of Parametric Max-Flow Algorithms

The parametric maximum flow problem is an extension of the classical maximum flow problem in which the capacities of certain arcs are not fixed but are functions of a single parameter. Gallo et al. [6] showed that certain versions of the push-relabel algorithm for ordinary maximum flow can be extended to the parametric problem while only increasing the worst-case time bound by a constant factor...

A Simultaneous Parametric Maximum-Flow Algorithm for Finding the Complete Chain of Solutions

A Simultaneous Parametric Maximum-flow (SPM) algorithm finds the maximum-flow and a min-cut of a bipartite parametric maximum-flow network simultaneously for all values of parameter . λ Instead of working with the original parametric network, a new network is derived from the original and the SPM gives a particular state of the flows in the derived network, from which the nested min-cuts under ...

Simultaneous Multi-Skilled Worker Assignment and Mixed-Model Two-Sided Assembly Line Balancing

This paper addresses a multi-objective mathematical model for the mixed-model two-sided assembly line balancing and worker assignment with different skills. In this problem, the operation time of each task is dependent on the skill of the worker. The following objective functions are considered in the mathematical model: (1) minimizing the number of mated-stations (2), minimizing the number of ...

A Hybrid Unconscious Search Algorithm for Mixed-model Assembly Line Balancing Problem with SDST, Parallel Workstation and Learning Effect

Due to the variety of products, simultaneous production of different models has an important role in production systems. Moreover, considering the realistic constraints in designing production lines attracted a lot of attentions in recent researches. Since the assembly line balancing problem is NP-hard, efficient methods are needed to solve this kind of problems. In this study, a new hybrid met...
