In this paper, we address a project scheduling problem. This problem considers a priority optimization objective for project managers. This objective implies assigning the most effective set of human resources to each ...

The Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP) is a combinatorial optimization problem; it belongs to the class of NP-hard problems. This problem is applied in various fields such as hospital layout, scheduling parallel production ...

In this paper, we address a project scheduling problem that considers a priority optimization objective for project managers. This objective involves assigning the most effective set of human resources to each project ...

This paper proposes new applications of statistical and data mining techniques for the assignment problem in the Multi-Depot Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows (MDVRPTW). Given the intrinsic difficulty of this problem ...

In this paper, we present a hybrid evolutionary algorithm with self-adaptive processes to solve a known project scheduling problem. This problem takes into consideration an optimization objective priority for project ...

The matroid secretary problem admits several variants according to the order in which the matroid’s elements are presented and how the elements are assigned weights. As the main result of this article, we devise the first ...
