A Metaheuristic Algorithm for the Minimum Routing Cost Spanning Tree Problem
The routing cost of a spanning tree in a weighted and connected graph is defined as the total length of paths between all pairs of vertices. The objective of the minimum routing cost spanning tree problem is to find a spanning tree such that its routing cost is minimum. This is an NP-Hard problem that we present a GRASP with path-relinking metaheuristic algorithm for it. GRASP is a multi-start ...
متن کاملOPTIMIZATION OF TREE-STRUCTURED GAS DISTRIBUTION NETWORK USING ANT COLONY OPTIMIZATION: A CASE STUDY
An Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm is proposed for optimal tree-structured natural gas distribution network. Design of pipelines, facilities, and equipment systems are necessary tasks to configure an optimal natural gas network. A mixed integer programming model is formulated to minimize the total cost in the network. The aim is to optimize pipe diameter sizes so that the location-alloc...
متن کاملGeometric Minimum Diameter Minimum Cost Spanning Tree Problem
In this paper we consider bi-criteria geometric optimization problems, in particular, the minimum diameter minimum cost spanning tree problem and the minimum radius minimum cost spanning tree problem for a set of points in the plane. The former problem is to construct a minimum diameter spanning tree among all possible minimum cost spanning trees, while the latter is to construct a minimum radi...
متن کاملSOLVING A STEP FIXED CHARGE TRANSPORTATION PROBLEM BY A SPANNING TREE-BASED MEMETIC ALGORITHM
In this paper, we consider the step fixed-charge transportation problem (FCTP) in which a step fixed cost, sometimes called a setup cost, is incurred if another related variable assumes a nonzero value. In order to solve the problem, two metaheuristic, a spanning tree-based genetic algorithm (GA) and a spanning tree-based memetic algorithm (MA), are developed for this NP-hard problem. For compa...
متن کاملMinimum weight spanning trees with bounded diameter
Let G be a simple graph with non-negative edge weights. Determining a minimum weight spanning tree is a fundamental problem that arises in network design and as a subproblem in many combinatorial optimization problems such as vehicle routing. In some applications, it is necessary to restrict the diameter of the spanning tree and thus one is interested in the problem : Find, in a given weighted ...
