摘要
A new algorithm for the generalized assignment problem is described in this paper. The dual-type algorithm uses a simple heuristic derived from a relaxation of the problem. The algorithm has been tested on generalized assignment problems of substantial size and compared to an exact integer programming approach and a well-established heuristic approach. Computational results look promising in terms of speed and solution quality.
