New Algorithm for the Sum Coloring Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we are interested in the elaboration of an approached solution to the sum coloring problem (MSCP), which is an NP-hard problem derived from the graphs coloring (GCP). The problem (MSCP) consists in minimizing the sum of colors in a graph. Our resolution approach is based on an hybridization of a genetic algorithm and a local heuristic based on an improvement of the maximal independent set algorithm given by F.Glover [4].

A new Simulated Annealing algorithm for the robust coloring problem
The Robust Coloring Problem (RCP) is a generalization of the well-known Graph Coloring Problem where we seek for a solution that remains valid when extra edges are added. The RCP is used in scheduling of events with possible last-minute changes and study frequency assignments of the electromagnetic spectrum. This problem has been proved as NP-hard and in instances larger than 30 vertices, meta-...
متن کاملParallel Jobs Scheduling with a Specific Due Date: Asemi-definite Relaxation-based Algorithm
This paper considers a different version of the parallel machines scheduling problem in which the parallel jobs simultaneously requirea pre-specifiedjob-dependent number of machines when being processed.This relaxation departs from one of the classic scheduling assumptions. While the analytical conditions can be easily statedfor some simple models, a graph model approach is required when confli...
متن کاملA practical algorithm for [r, s, t]-coloring of graph
Coloring graphs is one of important and frequently used topics in diverse sciences. In the majority of the articles, it is intended to find a proper bound for vertex coloring, edge coloring or total coloring in the graph. Although it is important to find a proper algorithm for graph coloring, it is hard and time-consuming too. In this paper, a new algorithm for vertex coloring, edge coloring an...
متن کاملA Variant of the Sum Coloring Problem on Trees
Let G = (V,E) be a simple and connected graph. The graph coloring problem on G is to color the vertices of G such that the colors of any two adjacent vertices are different and the number of used colors is as small as possible. By assigning a positive integer to a color, the sum coloring problem asks the minimum sum of the coloring numbers assigned for all vertices. In this paper, we introduce ...
متن کاملA New Heuristic Algorithm for Time-cost Trade-off Problem Taking into Account Monetary Value
Time-cost trade-off is one of the most important subjects in project management and of interest to contractors. The goal of time-cost trade-off is sensivity analysis of project costs to changes in activity duration in order to obtain the best combination of activity duration decrease, in a way that the sum of project costs is minimized. In the heuristics presented in this area, time crashing is...
