Future paths for integer programming and links to artificial intelligence

Fred Glover
- 01 May 1986 - 
- Vol. 13, Iss: 5, pp 533-549
TLDR
Four key areas of Integer programming are examined from a framework that links the perspectives of artificial intelligence and operations research, and each has characteristics that appear usefully relevant to developments on the horizon.

Synthetic Population Generation Without a Sample

TL;DR: A new synthetic population generator in the class of the Synthetic Reconstruction methods, which makes explicit use of both continuous and discrete optimization and uses the χ2 metric to estimate distances between estimated and generated distributions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent Developments and Challenges in Optimization-Based Process Synthesis

TL;DR: Key concepts in optimization-based conceptual design, namely superstructure representations, multilevel models, optimization methods, and modeling environments, are reviewed and some of the major challenges in the theory and practice in this area are discussed.

Solving the job shop scheduling problem with tabu search

TL;DR: In this article, an effective tabu search approach to the job shop scheduling problem is presented, which starts from the best solution rendered by a set of 14 heuristic dispatching solutions and then makes use of the classical disjunctive network representation of the problem and iteratively moves to another feasible solution by reversing the order of two adjacent critical path operations performed by the same machine.

An Evolutionary Tabu Search Algorithm And The NHL Scheduling Problem

TL;DR: The hybrid method developed in this paper is well suited for Open Shop Scheduling problems (OSSP), and the results obtained appear to be quite satisfactory.

Tabu Search Heuristics for the Vehicle Routing Problem

TL;DR: Some of the main tabu search features are first described: neighbourhood structures, shortterm memory, long term memory, intensification, and the conclusion.

Optimization by Simulated Annealing

TL;DR: There is a deep and useful connection between statistical mechanics and multivariate or combinatorial optimization (finding the minimum of a given function depending on many parameters), and a detailed analogy with annealing in solids provides a framework for optimization of very large and complex systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Equation of state calculations by fast computing machines

TL;DR: In this article, a modified Monte Carlo integration over configuration space is used to investigate the properties of a two-dimensional rigid-sphere system with a set of interacting individual molecules, and the results are compared to free volume equations of state and a four-term virial coefficient expansion.

The Sciences of the Artificial

TL;DR: A new edition of Simon's classic work on artificial intelligence as mentioned in this paper adds a chapter that sorts out the current themes and tools for analyzing complexity and complex systems, taking into account important advances in cognitive psychology and the science of design while confirming and extending Simon's basic thesis that a physical symbol system has the necessary and sufficient means for intelligent action.

Combinatorial optimization: algorithms and complexity

TL;DR: This clearly written, mathematically rigorous text includes a novel algorithmic exposition of the simplex method and also discusses the Soviet ellipsoid algorithm for linear programming; efficient algorithms for network flow, matching, spanning trees, and matroids; the theory of NP-complete problems; approximation algorithms, local search heuristics for NPcomplete problems, more.

The Architecture of Cognition

TL;DR: Adaptive Control of Thought (ACT*) as mentioned in this paper is a theory of the basic principles of operation built into the cognitive system and is the main focus of Anderson's theory of cognitive architecture.
