A Variable Neighborhood Search heuristic for rolling stock rescheduling
We present a Variable Neighborhood Search heuristic for the rolling stock rescheduling problem. Rolling stock rescheduling is needed when a disruption leads to cancellations in the timetable.

Buffer Allocation via Bottleneck-Based Variable Neighborhood Search
This study addresses the challenging problem of efficient buffer allocation in production lines. Suitable locations for buffer allocation are determined to satisfy the desired throughput, while a suitable balance between solution quality and computation ...

Variable neighborhood search for minimum linear arrangement problem [PDF]
The minimum linear arrangement problem is widely used and studied in many practical and theoretical applications. It consists of finding an embedding of the nodes of a graph on the line such that the sum of the resulting edge lengths is ...

Improved Firefly Algorithm with Variable Neighborhood Search for Data Clustering
Among the metaheuristic algorithms, population-based algorithms are an explorative search algorithm superior to the local search algorithm in terms of exploring the search space to find globally optimal solutions.

Adaptive search techniques for problems in vehicle routing, part II: A numerical comparison [PDF]
Research in the field of vehicle routing often focused on finding new ideas and concepts in the development of fast and efficient algorithms for an improved solution process. Early studies introduce static tailor-made strategies, but trends show

On Neighborhood Tree Search [PDF]
We consider the neighborhood tree induced by alternating the use of different neighborhood structures within a local search descent. We investigate the issue of designing a search strategy operating at the neighborhood tree level by exploring different ...

Self-Adjusting Variable Neighborhood Search Algorithm for Near-Optimal k-Means Clustering
The k-means problem is one of the most popular models in cluster analysis that minimizes the sum of the squared distances from clustered objects to the sought cluster centers (centroids).

A variable neighborhood search simheuristic for project portfolio selection under uncertainty [PDF]
With limited nancial resources, decision-makers in rms and governments face the task of selecting the best portfolio of projects to invest in. As the pool of project proposals increases and more realistic constraints are considered, the problem becomes
