This paper presents an algorithm for determining an optimum solution to a two-stage production sequencing problem with these characteristics: There are n jobs to be sequenced in a two-stage production ...

Abstract: This paper proposes an enhanced Branch and Bound (B&B) algorithm for Network-on-Chip (NoC) task mapping. The novelty of the algorithm can be summarized in two aspects. First, a more accurate ...

In this paper, we propose a new branch and bound algorithm for the solution of large scale separable concave programming problems. The largest distance bisection (LDB) technique is proposed to divide ...

This paper introduces an optimal algorithm for solving the discrete grid-based coverage path planning (CPP) problem. This problem consists in finding a path that covers a given region completely.

Abstract: In this paper, we study a novel self-driving travel planning problem, where the tourist aims to minimize the total cost. The idea is to use a mathematical model to planning a route-time ...

TSP(vector<vector<int>>& matrix) { dist_matrix = matrix; n = dist_matrix.size(); } // Function to calculate the lower bound for a given path int bound(vector<int ...

In this repository, I have solved four Binary Integer Programming (BIP) problems using the Branch and Bound technique. The problems involve decision-making under various constraints where the goal is ...

Branch-and-bound is the workhorse of all state-of-the-art mixed integer linear programming (MILP) solvers. These implementations of branch-and-bound typically use variable branching, that is, the ...
