An iterative variable-based fixation heuristic for the 0-1 multidimensional knapsack problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
An iterative scheme which is based on a dynamic fixation of the variables is developed to solve the 0-1 multidimensional knapsack problem. Such a scheme has the advantage of generating memory information, which is used on the one hand to choose the ...

On multidimensional inequality with variable distribution mean [PDF]

open access: yes
We compare alternative populations of individuals, who differ for many characteristics besides income, in terms of inequality. In order to achieve our aim, we extend the notion of Generalized Lorenz Preorder to a context of multivariate distributions ...
