Abstract: Assignment problems are found in multiagent systems, where there is a need to allocate multiple tasks to agents. The bottleneck assignment problem (BAP) is an assignment problem where the ...

Reviewer assignment algorithms and systems have emerged as critical tools in modern academic publishing and research evaluation, ensuring that submitted manuscripts are matched with expert reviewers ...

The Journal of the Operational Research Society, Vol. 48, No. 8 (Aug., 1997), pp. 804-809 (6 pages) A new algorithm for the generalised assignment problem is described in this paper. The algorithm is ...

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: We study the problem of assigning robots with actions to track targets. The objective is to optimize the robot team's tracking quality which can be defined as the reduction in the ...

In a standard paper assignment setting, a set $\mathcal{P}$ of $n^{(p)}$ papers needs to be assigned to a set $\mathcal{R}$ of $n^{(r)}$ reviewers. To ensure each ...

ACOTSPQAP is a software package that implements various Ant Colony Optimization algorithms for the symmetric travelling salesman problem (TSP) and the quadratic assignment problem (QAP). The ACO ...

Problem 1.1: The brute-force pattern-matching algorithm [10 pt.] Describe a text D and a pattern P such that the brute-force pattern-matching algorithm runs in Ω(dp) time.The lengths of D and P are d ...
