Abstract: This paper presents an improved one-layer projection neural network for solving the linear assignment problem. The assignment problem is first converted into a linear programming problem, ...

An example of the quadratic assignment problem (QAP) is the facility location problem, in which n facilities are assigned, at minimum cost, to n sites. Between each pair of facilities, there is a ...

Abstract: The routing and spectrum assignment problem is an NP-hard problem that receives increasing attention during the last years. Existing integer linear programming models for the problem are ...

Employee or labor scheduling is associated with assigning an appropriate number of workers to the jobs during each day of work. It requires determining when staff members will work and when part-time, ...
