Abstract:

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-heuristics are required. In this paper a Simulated Annealing Algorithm is proposed, and his performance is compared against other tech-niques such as GRASP, Tabu Search and Scatter Search. In the classic instances of the problem our proposal method which gives the best solutions at this moment.

A New Hybrid Parallel Simulated Annealing Algorithm for Travelling Salesman Problem with Multiple Transporters

In today’s competitive transportation systems, passengers search to find traveling agencies that are able to serve them efficiently considering both traveling time and transportation costs. In this paper, we present a new model for the traveling salesman problem with multiple transporters (TSPMT). In the proposed model, which is more applicable than the traditional versions, each city has diffe...

Simulated Annealing Algorithm for Graph Coloring

The goal of this Random Walks project is to code and experiment the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method for the problem of graph coloring. In this report, we present the plots of cost function H by varying the parameters like q (Number of colors that can be used in coloring) and c (Average node degree). The results are obtained by using simulated annealing scheme, where the temperature (inve...

Solving a robust capacitated arc routing problem using a hybrid simulated annealing algorithm: A waste collection application

The urban waste collection is one of the major municipal activities that involves large expenditures and difficult operational problems. Also, waste collection and disposal have high expenses such as investment cost (i.e. vehicles fleet) and high operational cost (i.e. fuel, maintenance). In fact, making slight improvements in this issue lead to a huge saving in municipal consumption. Some inci...
