On Solving Combinatorial Optimization Problems
, 2002
"... We present a new viewpoint on how some combinatorial optimization problems are solved. When applying this viewpoint to the NP-equivalent traveling salesman prob-lem (TSP), we naturally arrive to a conjecture that is closely related to the polynomial-time insolvability of TSP, and hence to the P −NP ..."

An Evolutionary Approach to Combinatorial Optimization Problems
- PROCEEDINGS OF THE 22ND ANNUAL ACM COMPUTER SCIENCE CONFERENCE
, 1994
"... The paper reports on the application of genetic algorithms, probabilistic search algorithms based on the model of organic evolution, to NP-complete combinatorial optimization problems. In particular, the subset sum, maximum cut, and minimum tardy task problems are considered. Except for the fitness ..."

Combinatorial optimization problems in self-assembly
- In Proceedings of the thiry-fourth annual ACM symposium on Theory of computing
, 2002
"... Self-assembly is the ubiquitous process by which simple objects autonomously assemble into intricate complexes. It has been suggested that intricate self-assembly processes will ultimately be used in circuit fabrication, nano-robotics, DNA computation, and amorphous computing. In this paper, we stud ..."

study two combinatorial optimization problems related to efficient self-assembly of shapes in the Tile Assembly Model of self-assembly proposed by Rothemund and Winfree [18]. The first is the Minimum Tile Set Problem, where the goal is to find the smallest tile system that uniquely produces a given
Metaheuristics for Dynamic Combinatorial Optimization Problems
"... Many real-world optimization problems are combinatorial optimization problems subject to dynamic environments. In such dynamic combinatorial optimization problems (DCOPs), the objective, decision variables, and/or constraints may change over time, and so solving DCOPs is a challenging task. Metaheu ..."

Approximation thresholds for combinatorial optimization problems
- In Proceedings of the International Congress of Mathematicians
, 2002
"... An NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem Π is said to have an approximation threshold if there is some t such that the optimal value of Π can be approximated in polynomial time within a ratio of t, and it is NP-hard to approximate it within a ratio better than t. We survey some of the known app ..."
