Description for Solving Combinatorial Optimization Problems in Parallel
Paperback. Parallel processing can reduce the runtime involved in solving combinatorial optimization problems. This work, to which contributions were made by partners of the SCOOP Project (Solving Combinatorial Optimization Problems in Parallel), examines this use of parallel processing. Editor(s): Ferreira, Alfonso; Paradalos, P. Series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science. Num Pages: 287 pages, biography. BIC Classification: UYFP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 15. Weight in Grams: 413.
Solving combinatorial optimization problems can often lead to runtime growing exponentially as a function of the input size. But important real-world problems, industrial applications, and academic research challenges, may demand exact optimal solutions. In such situations, parallel processing can reduce the runtime from days or months, typical when one workstation is used, to a few minutes or even seconds.
Partners of the CEC-sponsored SCOOP Project (Solving Combinatorial Optimization Problems in Parallel) contributed, on invitation, to this book; much attention was paid to competent coverage of the topic and the style of writing. Readers will include students, scientists, engineers, and professionals ... Read more
