This program has been imported from the CPC Program Library held at Queen's University Belfast (1969-2018) Abstract We present several efficient implementations of the simulated annealing algorithm fo
The dataset consists of 72 files. Each file is a matrix representing a certain size of the problem. MCoverInst* indicates the area to cover. Wherever there is 1 in the matrix, this means the cell mu
Despite having a very broad spectrum of applicability in practice, the multi-family capacitated lot-sizing problem (MFCLSP) has been scarcely studied. The MFCLSP is an extension of the capacitated lot
Simulated Tempering (ST) is an MCMC algorithm for complex target distributions that operates on a path between the target and a more amenable reference distribution. Crucially, if the reference enable
