We present an exact algorithm for solving the channel assignment problem in cellular telephony networks. This problem consists of assigning sets of channels to the network cells in such a way that the channel demand is satisfied, while avoiding co-channel interference and adjacent channel interference and respecting the channel spacing constraint for each antenna. In a previous article [Jaumard B, Marcotte O, Meyer C, Vovor T. Comparison of column generation models for channel assignment in cellular networks. Discrete Applied Mathematics 2002; 118:299–322], we formulated this problem as a covering problem in two different ways and compared these two formulations and another formulation both from a theoretical and computational point of view (by solving their linear relaxations). In the present article we focus on the best set covering formulation, where the subsets are sets of cells that can be assigned the same channel, and we actually solve two versions of the integer program. In the first version, we seek to minimize the unmet demand, while in the second, we seek to minimize the overall interference while assigning the required number of channels to each cell. In either version, the integer program is solved by an algorithm combining the column generation technique and a branch-and-cut scheme. Finally, we present the solutions produced by these algorithms for some instances of European networks and real-life instances supplied by the Bell Mobilité company. 相似文献

ABSTRACTWe provide the first meaningful documentation and analysis of the ‘Idiot’ crash implemented by Forrest in Clp that aims to obtain an approximate solution to linear programming (LP) problems for warm-starting the primal simplex method. The underlying algorithm is a penalty method with naive approximate minimization in each iteration. During initial iterations an approach similar to augmented Lagrangian is used. Later the technique corresponds closely to a classical quadratic penalty method. We discuss the extent to which it can be used to obtain fast approximate solutions of LP problems, in particular when applied to linearizations of quadratic assignment problems. 相似文献

This paper approaches the problem of designing a two-level network protected against single-edge failures. The problem simultaneously decides on the partition of the set of nodes into terminals and hubs, the connection of the hubs through a backbone network (first network level), and the assignment of terminals to hubs and their connection through access networks (second network level). We consider two survivable structures in both network levels. One structure is a two-edge connected network, and the other structure is a ring. There is a limit on the number of nodes in each access network, and there are fixed costs associated with the hubs and the access and backbone links. The aim of the problem is to minimize the total cost. We give integer programming formulations and valid inequalities for the different versions of the problem, solve them using a branch-and-cut algorithm, and discuss computational results. Some of the new inequalities can be used also to solve other problems in the literature, like the plant cycle location problem and the hub location routing problem. 相似文献

This paper proposes a mathematical model, valid inequalities and polyhedral results for the minimum labeling Hamiltonian cycle problem. This problem is defined on an unweighted graph in which each edge has a label. The aim is to determine a Hamiltonian cycle with the least number of labels. We also define two variants of this problem by assigning weights to the edges and by considering the tour length either as an objective or as a constraint. A branch-and-cut algorithm for the three problems is developed, and computational results are reported on randomly generated instances and on modified instances from TSPLIB. 相似文献

This paper presents a new approach for parallel heuristic algorithms based on adaptive parallelism. Adaptive parallelism was used to dynamically adjust the parallelism degree of the application with respect to the system load. This approach demonstrates that high-performance computing using a hundred of heterogeneous workstations combined with massively parallel machines is feasible to solve large optimization problems with respect to the personal character of workstations. The fault-tolerant algorithm allows a minimal loss of computation in case of failures. The proposed algorithm exploits the properties of this class of applications in order to reduce the complexity of the algorithm in terms of the checkpoint files size and the control messages exchanged. The parallel heuristic algorithm combines different search strategies: simulated annealing and tabu search. Encouraging results have been obtained in solving the quadratic assignment problem. We have improved the best known solutions for some large real-world problems. 相似文献

The purpose of cellular manufacturing (CM) is to find part-families and machine cells which form self-sufficient units of production with a certain amount of autonomy that result in easier control (Kusiak, 1987, 1990). One of the most important steps in CM is to optimally identify cells from a given part-machine incidence matrix. Several formulations of various complexities are proposed in the literature to deal with this problem. One of the mostly known formulations for CM is the quadratic assignment formulation (Kusiak and Chow, 1988). The problem with the quadratic assignment based formulation is the difficulty of its solution due to its combinatorial nature. The formulation is also known as NP-hard (Kusiak and Chow, 1988). In this paper a novel simulated annealing based meta-heuristic algorithm is developed to solve quadratic assignment formulations of the manufacturing cell formation problems. In the paper a novel solution representation scheme is developed. Using the proposed solution representation scheme, feasible neighborhoods can be generated easily. Moreover, the proposed algorithm has the ability to self determine the optimal number of cell during the search process. A test problem is solved to present working of the proposed algorithm. 相似文献

Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA), as a new population-based optimization algorithm, performs well in solving optimization problems. However, when tackling high-dimensional global optimization problems, WOA tends to fall into local optimal solutions and has slow convergence rate and low solution accuracy. To address these problems, a whale optimization algorithm based on quadratic interpolation (QIWOA) is presented. On the one hand, a modified exploration process by introducing a new parameter is proposed to efficiently search the regions and deal with the premature convergence problem. On the other hand, quadratic interpolation around the best search agent helps QIWOA to improve the exploitation ability and the solution accuracy. Moreover, the algorithm tries to make a balance between exploitation and exploration. QIWOA is compared with several state-of-the-art algorithms on 30 high-dimensional benchmark functions with dimensions ranging from 100 to 2000. The experimental results show that QIWOA has faster convergence rate and higher solution accuracy than both WOA and other population-based algorithms. For functions with a flat or sharp bottom, QIWOA is difficult to find the global optimum, but it still performs best compared with other algorithms. 相似文献

As the hot line in NP-hard problems research in recent years, backbone analysis is crucial for phase transition, hardness, and algorithm design. Whereas theoretical analysis of backbone and its applications in algorithm design are still at a begin- ning state yet, this paper took the quadratic assignment problem (QAP) as a case study and proved by theoretical analysis that it is NP-hard to find the backbone, i.e., no algorithm exists to obtain the backbone of a QAP in polynomial time. Results of this paper showed that it is reasonable to acquire approximate backbone by inter- section of local optimal solutions. Furthermore, with the method of constructing biased instances, this paper proposed a new meta-heuristic -- biased instance based approximate backbone (BI-AB), whose basic idea is as follows: firstly, construct a new biased instance for every QAP instance (the optimal solution of the new instance is also optimal for the original one); secondly, the approximate backbone is obtained by intersection of multiple local optimal solutions computed by some existing algorithm; finally, search for the optimal solutions in the reduced space by fixing the approximate backbone. Work of the paper enhanced the research area of theoretical analysis of backbone. The meta-heuristic proposed in this paper provided a new way for general algorithm design of NP-hard problems as well. 相似文献

The paper presents a population-based algorithm for computing approximations of the efficient solution set for the linear assignment problem with two objectives. This is a multiobjective metaheuristic based on the intensive use of three operators – a local search, a crossover and a path-relinking – performed on a population composed only of elite solutions. The initial population is a set of feasible solutions, where each solution is one optimal assignment for an appropriate weighted sum of two objectives. Genetic information is derived from the elite solutions, providing a useful genetic heritage to be exploited by crossover operators. An upper bound set, defined in the objective space, provides one acceptable limit for performing a local search. Results reported using referenced data sets have shown that the heuristic is able to quickly find a very good approximation of the efficient frontier, even in situation of heterogeneity of objective functions. In addition, this heuristic has two main advantages. It is based on simple easy-to-implement principles, and it does not need a parameter tuning phase. 相似文献

We introduce the Partitioning-Hub-Location-Routing Problem (PHLRP), a hub location problem involving graph partitioning and routing features. The PHLRP consists of partitioning a given network into sub-networks, locating at least one hub in each sub-network and routing the traffic within the network at minimum cost. This problem finds applications in deployment of an Internet Routing Protocol called Intermediate System–Intermediate System (ISIS), and strategic planning of LTL ground freight distribution systems. We present an Integer Programming (IP) model for solving exactly the PHLRP and explore possible valid inequalities to strengthen it. Computational experiments prove the effectiveness of our model which is able to tackle instances of PHLRP containing up to 20 vertices. 相似文献

A great deluge and tabu search hybrid with two-stage memory support for quadratic assignment problem
A two-stage memory architecture is maintained within the framework of great deluge algorithm for the solution of single-objective quadratic assignment problem. Search operators exploiting the accumulated experience in memory are also implemented to direct the search towards more promising regions of the solution space. The level-based acceptance criterion of the great deluge algorithm is applied for each best solution extracted in a particular iteration. The use of short- and long-term memory-based search supported by effective move operators resulted in a powerful combinatorial optimization algorithm. A successful variant of tabu search is employed as the local search method that is only applied over a few randomly selected memory elements when the second stage memory is updated. The success of the presented approach is illustrated using sets of well-known benchmark problems and evaluated in comparison to well-known combinatorial optimization algorithms. Experimental evaluations clearly demonstrate that the presented approach is a competitive and powerful alternative for solving quadratic assignment problems. 相似文献

We study the hub location and routing problem where we decide on the location of hubs, the allocation of nodes to hubs, and the routing among the nodes allocated to the same hubs, with the aim of minimizing the total transportation cost. Each hub has one vehicle that visits all the nodes assigned to it on a cycle. We propose a mixed integer programming formulation for this problem and strengthen it with valid inequalities. We devise separation routines for these inequalities and develop a branch-and-cut algorithm which is tested on CAB and AP instances from the literature. The results show that the formulation is strong and the branch-and-cut algorithm is able to solve instances with up to 50 nodes. 相似文献

The quadratic knapsack problem (QKP) has been the subject of considerable research in recent years. Despite notable advances in special purpose solution methodologies for QKP, this problem class remains very difficult to solve. With the exception of special cases, the state-of-the-art is limited to addressing problems of a few hundred variables and a single knapsack constraint.In this paper we provide a comparison of quadratic and linear representations of QKP based on test problems with multiple knapsack constraints and up to eight hundred variables. For the linear representations, three standard linearizations are investigated. Both the quadratic and linear models are solved by standard branch-and-cut optimizers available via CPLEX. Our results show that the linear models perform well on small problem instances but for larger problems the quadratic model outperforms the linear models tested both in terms of solution quality and solution time by a wide margin. Moreover, our results demonstrate that QKP instances larger than those previously addressed in the literature as well as instances with multiple constraints can be successfully and efficiently solved by branch and cut methodologies. 相似文献

Terminal assignment problem (TEAP) is to determine minimum cost links to form a network by connecting a given set of terminals to a given collection of concentrators. This paper presents a novel discrete particle swarm optimization (PSO) based on estimation of distribution (EDA), named DPSO-EDA, for TEAP. EDAs sample new solutions from a probability model which characterizes the distribution of promising solutions in the search space at each generation. The DPSO-EDA incorporates the global statistical information collected from personal best solutions of all particles into the PSO, and therefore each particle has comprehensive learning and search ability. In the DPSO-EDA, a modified constraint handling method based on Hopfield neural network (HNN) is also introduced to fit nicely into the framework of the PSO and thus utilize the merit of the PSO. The DPSO-EDA adopts the asynchronous updating scheme. Further, the DPSO-EDA is applied to a problem directly related to TEAP, the task assignment problem (TAAP), in order to show that the DPSO-EDA can be generalized to other related combinatorial optimization problems. Simulation results on several problem instances show that the DPSO-EDA is better than previous methods. 相似文献

We report on a growing class of assignment problems that are increasingly of interest and very challenging in terms of the difficulty they pose to attempts at exact solution. These problems address economic issues in the location and design of factories, hospitals, depots, transportation hubs and military bases. Others involve improvements in communication network design. In this article we survey the latest and best methods available for solving exactly these difficult problems and suggest a taxonomy that provides a framework for combining existing solution methods and sets of computer tools that can be modified and extended to make inroads in solving this growing class of optimization problems. 相似文献
