Optimizing the Classic and the Energy-Efficient Permutation Flowshop Scheduling Problem with a Hybrid Tyrannosaurus Rex Optimization Algorithm [PDF]
BiomimeticsThis paper introduces a Hybrid Tyrannosaurus Rex Optimization Algorithm (Hybrid TROA) combined with Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS), two variations of the Path Relinking strategy, and a randomized Nawaz–Enscore–Ham (NEH) heuristic to address the ...

Local search-based heuristics for the multiobjective multidimensional knapsack problem
Production, 2012 In real optimization problems it is generally desirable to optimize more than one performance criterion (or objective) at the same time. The goal of the multiobjective combinatorial optimization (MOCO) is to optimize simultaneously r > 1 objectives.

A greedy randomized adaptive search procedure application to solve the travelling salesman problem
International Journal of Industrial Engineering and Management, 2019 The main objective of this article is to show an algorithm capable to find a minimal total length evaluation function roundtrip in symmetric Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP). Application of concepts related to Greedy Randomized Adaptive Search Procedure
