Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many problems, such as cutting stock problems and the scheduling of tasks with a shared resource, can be viewed as two-dimensional bin packing problems. Using the two-dimensional packing model of Baker, Coffman, and Rivest, a finite list L of rectangles is to be packed into a rectangular bin of finite width but infinite height, so as to minimize the total height used. An algorithm which packs the list in the order given without looking ahead or moving pieces already packed is called an on-line algorithm. Since the problem of finding an optimal packing is NP-hard, previous work has been directed at finding approximation algorithms. Most of the approximation algorithms which have been studied are on-line except that they require the list to have been previously sorted by height or width. This paper examines lower bounds for the worst-case performance of on-line algorithms for both non-preordered lists and for lists preordered by increasing or decreasing height of width. (Author).

This book was released on 2007-05-15 with total page 1434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Delineating the tremendous growth in this area, the Handbook of Approximation Algorithms and Metaheuristics covers fundamental, theoretical topics as well as advanced, practical applications. It is the first book to comprehensively study both approximation algorithms and metaheuristics. Starting with basic approaches, the handbook presents the methodologies to design and analyze efficient approximation algorithms for a large class of problems, and to establish inapproximability results for another class of problems. It also discusses local search, neural networks, and metaheuristics, as well as multiobjective problems, sensitivity analysis, and stability. After laying this foundation, the book applies the methodologies to classical problems in combinatorial optimization, computational geometry, and graph problems. In addition, it explores large-scale and emerging applications in networks, bioinformatics, VLSI, game theory, and data analysis. Undoubtedly sparking further developments in the field, this handbook provides the essential techniques to apply approximation algorithms and metaheuristics to a wide range of problems in computer science, operations research, computer engineering, and economics. Armed with this information, researchers can design and analyze efficient algorithms to generate near-optimal solutions for a wide range of computational intractable problems.

Book excerpt: One of the most frequently occurring types of optimization problems involves decision variables which have to take integer values. From a practical point of view, such problems occur in countless areas of management, engineering, administration, etc., and include such problems as location of plants or warehouses, scheduling of aircraft, cutting raw materials to prescribed dimensions, design of computer chips, increasing reliability or capacity of networks, etc. This is the class of problems known in the professional literature as "discrete optimization" problems. While these problems are of enormous applicability, they present many challenges from a computational point of view. This volume is an update on the impressive progress achieved by mathematicians, operations researchers, and computer scientists in solving discrete optimization problems of very large sizes. The surveys in this volume present a comprehensive overview of the state of the art in discrete optimization and are written by the most prominent researchers from all over the world.This volume describes the tremendous progress in discrete optimization achieved in the last 20 years since the publication of Discrete Optimization '77, Annals of Discrete Mathematics, volumes 4 and 5, 1979 (Elsevier).

Download or read book Probability and Algorithms written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1992-02-01 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some of the hardest computational problems have been successfully attacked through the use of probabilistic algorithms, which have an element of randomness to them. Concepts from the field of probability are also increasingly useful in analyzing the performance of algorithms, broadening our understanding beyond that provided by the worst-case or average-case analyses. This book surveys both of these emerging areas on the interface of the mathematical sciences and computer science. It is designed to attract new researchers to this area and provide them with enough background to begin explorations of their own.
