A new metaheuristic and its application to the Steiner problems in graphs

Metaheuristics are a set of related ideas that provide a general framework to obtain the approximated solution of combinatorial optimization problems. We present ideas for a new method that we call SN. SN is based on the idea of dividing a given optimization problem into decision subproblems which a...
