The Computational Efficiency of the Ji-Lee-Li Algorithm for the Assignment Problem

چکیده
Ji et al. have conjectured that using the matrix form (to represent a basic solution) instead of the Simplex tableau in the dual Simplex method will lead to an algorithm with the time complexity comparable to the Hungarian algorithm for solving the Assignment Problem. In this note we show that both the time complexity and the CPU times of the Ji et al. algorithm are far away from being competitive to the Hungarian algorithm.

Hybrid Meta-heuristic Algorithm for Task Assignment Problem
Task assignment problem (TAP) involves assigning a number of tasks to a number of processors in distributed computing systems and its objective is to minimize the sum of the total execution and communication costs, subject to all of the resource constraints. TAP is a combinatorial optimization problem and NP-complete. This paper proposes a hybrid meta-heuristic algorithm for solving TAP in a ...

In this paper, a due date assignment scheduling problem with precedence constraints and controllable processing times in uncertain environment is investigated, in which the basic processing time of each job is assumed to be the symmetric trapezoidal fuzzy number, and the linear resource consumption function is used.The objective is to minimize the crisp possibilistic mean (or expected) value of...
متن کاملA population-based algorithm for the railroad blocking problem
Railroad blocking problem (RBP) is one of the problems that need an important decision in freight railroads. The objective of solving this problem is to minimize the costs of delivering all commodities by deciding which inter-terminal blocks to build and by specifying the assignment of commodities to these blocks, while observing limits on the number and cumulative volume of the blocks assemble...
متن کاملDeveloping a New Algorithm for a Utility-based Network Design Problem with Elastic Demand
Developing the infrastructures for preventing non-communicable diseases is one of the most important goals of healthcare context in recent years. In this regard, the number and capacity of preventive healthcare facilities as well as assignment of customers to facilities should be determined for each region. Besides the accessibility, the utility of customers is a determinative factor in partici...
