Abstract Variable neighborhood search (VNS) is a metaheuristic, or framework for building heuristics, based upon systematic change of neighborhoods both in a decent phase to find a local minimum, and in ...

Distance Approximation in Bounded-Degree and General Sparse Graphs
[chapter]

This fraction is taken with respect to a given upper bound m on the number of edges. In particular, for graphs with degree bound d over n vertices, m = dn. ...
Specifically, these properties are k-edge connectivity, subgraph-freeness (for constant size subgraphs), being a Eulerian graph, and cycle-freeness. ...

Proceedings of the 2014 ACM SIGMOD international conference on Management of data - SIGMOD '14
To further optimize the quadratic computational cost of the greedy algorithm, we propose an index structure called NB-Index to index the θ-neighborhoods of the database graphs by employing a novel combination ...
While graph databases model a wide range of scientific data, solving the problem in the context of graphs presents us with unique challenges due to the inherent complexity of matching structures. ...

2007 4th Annual IEEE Communications Society Conference on Sensor, Mesh and Ad Hoc Communications and Networks
We formulate the design of CNG, as a convex optimization problem, which determines the best codes to be used, given the underlying network connectivity and channel conditions. ...
In this paper, we specifically address this problem, and propose the INPoD framework, which enables the use of LDPC design tools in the design of CNG for a given sensor network topology. ...
Based on the graph connectivity we give the following bounds corresponding to the parity and data sides. where, | | f N is the size of incoming-neighborhood of f . ...

Discrete Applied Mathematics
We establish ÿnite convergence for some tabu search algorithms based on recency memory or frequency memory, distinguishing between symmetric and asymmetric neighborhood structures. ...
These are the ÿrst demonstrations of explicit bounds provided by such forms of memory, and their ÿniteness suggests an important distinction between these ideas and those underlying certain "probabilistic ...
