A GPU implementation of the Simulated Annealing Heuristic for the Quadratic Assignment Problem

Gerald Paul

The quadratic assignment problem (QAP) is one of the most difficult combinatorial optimization problems. An effective heuristic for obtaining approximate solutions to the QAP is si…

Comparative Performance of Tabu Search and Simulated Annealing Heuristics for the Quadratic Assignment Problem

Gerald Paul

For almost two decades the question of whether tabu search (TS) or simulated annealing (SA) performs better for the quadratic assignment problem has been unresolved. To answer this…

An Efficient Implementation of the Robust Tabu Search Heuristic for Sparse Quadratic Assignment Problems

Gerald Paul

We propose and develop an efficient implementation of the robust tabu search heuristic for sparse quadratic assignment problems. The traditional implementation of the heuristic app…

A Variable Depth Sequential Search Heuristic for the Quadratic Assignment Problem

Gerald Paul

We develop a variable depth search heuristic for the quadratic assignment problem. The heuristic is based on sequential changes in assignments analogous to the Lin-Kernighan sequen…
