  Virtual machine consolidation using constraint-based multi-objective optimization
Terra-Neves M., Lynce I., Manquinho V. Journal of Heuristics 25(3): 339-375, 2019.  Type: Article

As cloud computing grows, its demands on resources play an ever-increasing role in the economics of machine maintenance. One potential way of addressing this issue is by improving usage. For example, by judiciously placing the tasks re...

  Mapping the global structure of TSP fitness landscapes
Ochoa G., Veerapen N. Journal of Heuristics 24(3): 265-294, 2018.  Type: Article

All paths through a weighted graph have a number representing the total distance traveled, called the “fitness” of the path. Suppose that each path’s fitness is “plotted” somehow such t...

  Metaheuristic approaches to the placement of suicide bomber detectors
Cotta C., Gallardo J. Journal of Heuristics 24(3): 483-513, 2018.  Type: Article

This paper considers the problem of placing suicide bomber detectors. The model takes into account the probability that a given detector may fail to detect bombers. In brief, the model assumes a layout of squares, some of which are blo...

  Scatter search for minimizing weighted tardiness in a single machine scheduling with setups
González M., Palacios J., Vela C., Hernández-Arauzo A. Journal of Heuristics 23(2-3): 81-110, 2017.  Type: Article

Scatter search is a heuristic method of generating nonrandom solutions. It systematically explores the solution space by constructing new trial solutions from reference solutions using context knowledge. A standard template of the proc...

  D-optimal matrices via quadratic integer optimization
Kotsireas I., Pardalos P. Journal of Heuristics 19(4): 617-627, 2013.  Type: Article

Starting with a set of square matrices with elements {-1, +1}, let their size be an even number, but not divisible by four. From this set of matrices, find the one with the maximal determinant, and you have a D-optimal matrix. Although...

  GRASP algorithms for the robust railway network design problem
García-Archilla B., Lozano A., Mesa J., Perea F. Journal of Heuristics 19(2): 399-422, 2013.  Type: Article

In this paper, the authors address a railway network design problem (RNDP) and its robust version. The RNDP under consideration is characterized by the existence of a competing mode, and the goal is to design a network covering as many...

  Local search for a multi-drop multi-container loading problem
Ceschia S., Schaerf A. Journal of Heuristics 19(2): 275-294, 2013.  Type: Article

Container loading problems (CLP) are interesting and easy to appreciate, and span from real-world to abstract mathematical variants. However, CLP is an NP-complete problem, so something as simple as comparing approaches, heuristics, an...
