چکیده

The Steiner Tree Problem with Delays (STPD) is a variant of the well-known Steiner Tree Problem in which the delay on each path between a source node and a terminal node is limited by a given maximum value. We propose a Branch-and-Cut algorithm for solving this problem using a formulation based on lifted Miller-TuckerZemlin subtour elimination constraints. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is assessed through computational experiments carried out on dense benchmark instances.

Tree Decomposition based Steiner Tree Computation over Large Graphs

In this paper, we present an exact algorithm for the Steiner tree problem. The algorithm is based on certain pre-computed index structures. Our algorithm offers a practical solution for the Steiner tree problems on graphs of large size and bounded number of terminals.

An Exact Algorithm for the Mode Identity Project Scheduling Problem

In this paper we consider the non-preemptive variant of a multi-mode resource constrained project scheduling problem (MRCPSP) with mode identity, in which a set of project activities is partitioned into disjoint subsets while all activities forming one subset have to be processed in the same mode. We present a depth-first branch and bound algorithm for the resource constrained project schedulin...

On Exact Solutions to the Euclidean Bottleneck Steiner Tree Problem

We study the Euclidean bottleneck Steiner tree problem: given a set P of n points in the Euclidean plane, called terminals, find a Steiner tree with at most k Steiner points such that the length of the longest edge in the tree is minimized. This problem is known to be NP-hard even to approximate within ratio √ 2. We focus on finding exact solutions to the problem for a small constant k. Based o...

Time Delay Analysis for a Parallel Steiner tree Algorithm

This paper presents the computational analysis of the Steiner tree problem on the Server-Client model of computation. In particular, this work analyzes the time delays among server and clients for the parallel Steiner tree algorithm and examines some consequences of time delays on the execution time by considering constant and variable delays. The paper also calculates the expression for the op...

On the Full and Bottleneck Full Steiner Tree Problems

Given a graph G = (V, E) with a length function on edges and a subset R of V , the full Steiner tree is defined to be a Steiner tree in G with all the vertices of R as its leaves. Then the full Steiner tree problem is to find a full Steiner tree in G with minimum length, and the bottleneck full Steiner tree problem is to find a full Steiner tree T in G such that the length of the largest edge i...
