An Overview of Heuristic Solution Methods
Journal of the Operational Research Society, 2004Summary: Besides those analysts who are already familiar with a number of heuristic methods, this paper should also be of interest to those analysts and managers who, although not yet aware of specific heuristic approaches, are quite comfortable with the use of mathematical modelling as an aid to decision making.

Heuristic solutions for satellite link expansion
11th IEEE Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference (IEEE Cat. No.02CH37379), 2003The efficient heuristic algorithm for sizing of N satellite capacity types (on LES side of link) in mobile networks during exploitation is being developed, minimizing the total expansion cost. Using the network flow approach and the extreme flow theory many expansion solutions (sub-problems) are eliminated from further calculation, because they consist

Heuristic Solutions for Locating Health Resources
IEEE Intelligent Systems, 2008Of the three metaheuristic strategies tested that can help determine healthcare facility locations, scatter search performed the best and fastest. Hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar, can cause many health problems, including blurred vision, mental confusion, and speech impairment.

A Heuristic for Obtaining and Initial Solution for the Transportation Problem
Journal of the Operational Research Society, 1990A heuristic for obtaining an initial solution for the transportation problem is presented. Comparison of findings obtained by the new heuristic and Vogel's approximation method (VAM) are tabulated for 480 examples. Superior performance of the new heuristic over VAM is discussed in terms of total costs obtained, number of iterations required to reach ...

Designing Distribution Networks: Formulations and Solution Heuristic
Transportation Science, 2004The fast development of transport activities and the introduction of shipment consolidation have considerably changed the logistics context over the last three decades. Consolidation terminals, also called transshipment centers (TC) or hubs, have justified their presence by improving the loading of trucks in terms of both volume and weight.

Business Process Redesign Heuristics for Blockchain Solutions
2020 IEEE 24th International Enterprise Distributed Object Computing Conference (EDOC), 2020Blockchain has emerged as one of the most promising and revolutionary technologies in the past years. Companies are exploring use cases in the hope of reaping benefits from this technology. However, to achieve the desired impact, it is not sufficient to merely replace existing technologies.

Stochastic lot-sizing: Solution and heuristic methods
International Journal of Production Economics, 1996Abstract We consider a single item stochastic lot-sizing model motivated by a Dutch company operating in a make-to-order environment. Since there is no possibility for having stocks on hand, every customer's order receives a fixed delivery date upon arrival.

Heuristic Solution of a Signal Design Optimization Problem
Bell System Technical Journal, 1973This paper discusses a heuristic solution procedure for a combinatorial optimization problem that originates in designing signal constellations for modems. The design problem is to place m signals in a two-dimensional space to minimize the average error rate under specified noise conditions, using a maximum-likelihood decoding scheme.

A Fast Heuristic Solution for the Commons Game
2012Game Theory can be used to capture and model the phenomenon of the exploitation of the environment by human beings. The Commons Game is a simple and concise game that elegantly formulates the different behaviors of humans toward the exploitation of resources (also known as “commons”) as seen from a game-theoretic perspective.
