A tabu search algorithm for the cost-oriented multi-manned assembly line balancing problem [PDF]
Multi-manned assembly line balancing problems (MALBPs) can be usually found in plants producing large-sized high-volume products such as automobiles and trucks. In this paper, a cost-oriented version of MALBPs, namely, CMALBP, is addressed. This class of

A Hybrid Tabu Search Algorithm for the Nurse Rostering Problem
This paper deals with the problem of nurse rostering in Belgian hospitals. This is a highly constrained real world problem that was (until the results of this research were applied) tackled manually. The problem basically concerns the assignment of duties to a set of people with different qualifications, work regulations and preferences.

Proposal of Tabu Search Algorithm Based on Cuckoo Search
This paper presents a new version of Tabu Search (TS) based on Cuckoo Search (CS) called (Tabu-Cuckoo Search TCS) to reduce the effect of the TS problems. The proposed algorithm provides a more diversity to candidate solutions of TS. Two case studies have been solved using the proposed algorithm, 4-Color Map and Traveling Salesman Problem.

A tabu search heuristic based on k-diamonds for the weighted feedback vertex set problem [PDF]
Given an undirected and vertex weighted graph G = (V,E,w), the Weighted Feedback Vertex Problem (WFVP) consists of finding a subset F ⊆ V of vertices of minimum weight such that each cycle in G contains at least one vertex in F.

HITS: Hyperplanes intersection tabu search for maximum score estimation
A tabu search algorithm is proposed for the maximum score estimator computation, where the focus is on large sample size and large number of estimated parameters. This is a deterministic algorithm rather than a stochastic one.

Forest Management Zone Design with a Tabu Search Algorithm [PDF]
Increased conflicts between timber production and environmental protection led some analysts to advocate land-use segregation, often referred to as forest management zoning.

Tabu Search for the Single Row Facility Layout Problem in FMS using a 3-opt Neighborhood [PDF]
Since material handling agents in a FMS are most efficient when moving in straight lines, a common layout of machines in a FMS is a single row layout. This allows a floor designer to model the problem of generating an optimal machine layout in a FMS as a

Adaptive approach heuristics for the generalized assignment problem [PDF]
The Generalized Assignment Problem consists in assigning a set of tasks to a set of agents with minimum cost. Each agent has a limited amount of a single resource and each task must be assigned to one and only one agent, requiring a certain amount of the

A tabu search procedure for generating robust project baseline schedules under stochastic resource availabilities. [PDF]
The majority of research efforts in project scheduling assume a static and deterministic environment with complete information. In practice, however, these assumptions will hardly, if ever, be satisfied.
