New geometrical compactness measures for zones design
The design of compact zones has been studied because of its influence in the creation of zones with regular forms, which are easier to analyze, to investigate or to administer.

Relajacion lagrangeana para el problema de particionamiento de áreas geográficas
Entre las metodologías utilizadas en el particionamiento territorial, destacan los modelos de localización-asignación (“location-allocation”) y los de particionamiento de conjuntos ("set partitioning”), que agrupan pequeñas áreas geográficas llamadas ...

Improving Dense Packings of Equal Disks in a Square [PDF]
We describe a new numerical procedure for generating dense packings of disks and spheres inside various geometric shapes. We believe that in some of the smaller cases, these packings are in fact optimal.

Discrete Particle Swarm Optimization for the minimum labelling Steiner tree problem [PDF]
Particle Swarm Optimization is an evolutionary method inspired by the social behaviour of individuals inside swarms in nature. Solutions of the problem are modelled as members of the swarm which fly in the solution space.

Optimal recombination in genetic algorithms for combinatorial optimization problems: Part II
: This paper surveys results on complexity of the optimal recombination problem (ORP), which consists in finding the best possible offspring as a result of a recombination operator in a genetic algorithm, given two parent solutions.

Empirical study of the greedy heuristic as applied to the link selection problem
Behind the link selection problem there is a practical problem that aims to check efficiently the vehicles on a road network. The checking process is to be realized with license plate reading cameras for checking the valid vignette of vehicles using that

AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY OF COMBINED ROUTING AND LOADING PROBLEMS
: Transportation problems involving routing and loading at the same time are currently a hot topic in combinatorial optimization. The interest of researchers and practitioners is motivated by the intrinsic difficulty of this research area, which combines
