Metaheuristics in combinatorial optimization: Overview and conceptual comparison

TL;DR: A survey of the nowadays most important metaheuristics from a conceptual point of view and introduces a framework, that is called the I&D frame, in order to put different intensification and diversification components into relation with each other.

Branch-And-Price: Column Generation for Solving Huge Integer Programs

TL;DR: In this paper, column generation methods for integer programs with a huge number of variables are discussed, including implicit pricing of nonbasic variables to generate new columns or to prove LP optimality at a node of the branch-and-bound tree.

FemtoCaching: Wireless Content Delivery Through Distributed Caching Helpers

TL;DR: This work shows that the uncoded optimum file assignment is NP-hard, and develops a greedy strategy that is provably within a factor 2 of the optimum, and provides an efficient algorithm achieving a provably better approximation ratio of 1-1/d d, where d is the maximum number of helpers a user can be connected to.
