Tabu search for bus and train driver scheduling with time windows
… is explored. Based on the experience, the Tabu Search meta-heuristic approach is then investigated. Multi-neighbourhoods and an appropriate memory scheme, which are essential elements of Tabu Search are designed and tailored for the driver scheduling problem with WROs. Alternative designs …

The tabu ant colony optimizer and its application in an energy market
<p>"A new ant colony optimizer, the 'tabu ant colony optimizer' (TabuACO) is introduced, tested, and applied to a contemporary problem. The TabuACO uses both attractive and repulsive pheromones to speed convergence to a solution. The dual pheromone TabuACO is benchmarked against several other …

Minimization of weighted tardiness in job shops using shifting bottleneck and tabu search procedures
… namely the shifting bottleneck procedure and tabu search. Both heuristics are known to perform very well for minimizing makespan in job shops. Here we adapt them for the objective of minimizing weighted tardiness and test both under different parameter settings in order to select …

A Hybrid Tabu/Scatter Search Algorithm for Simulation-Based Optimization of Multi-Objective Runway Operations Scheduling
… complex and unstructured search space, a hybrid Tabu/Scatter Search algorithm is developed to find solutions by using an elitist strategy to preserve non-dominated solutions, a dynamic update mechanism to produce high-quality solutions and a rebuilding strategy to promote solution diversity. The …

Optimization for source localization and geoacoustic inversion in underwater acoustics
… accelerate the inversion process. In this work, tabu is applied to matched-field inversion for source localization and environmental parameter estimation. Tabu is a global optimization technique which proceeds by finding the best model in a local neighborhood, where a best model is defined as the …
