In this paper, inverse constrained minimum spanning tree problem under Hamming distance. Such an inverse problem is to modify the weights with bound constrains so that a given feasible solution becomes an optimal solution, and the deviation of the weights, measured by the weighted Hamming distance, is minimum. We present a strongly polynomial time algorithm to solve the inverse constrained minimum spanning tree problem under Hamming distance.

This paper proposes a $O(n^2)$ polynomial time algorithm to obtain optimal solution for Traveling Salesman problem that is a NP-complete because polynomial time algorithm has been not known yet. The biggest problem in a large-scale Traveling Salesman problem is the fact that the amount of data to be processed is $n{\times}n$, and thus as n increases, the data increases by multifold. Therefore, this paper proposes a methodology by which the data amount is first reduced to approximately n/2. Then, it seeks a bi-directional route at a random point. The proposed algorithm has proved to be successful in obtaining the optimal solutions with $O(n^2)$ time complexity when applied to TSP-1 with 26 European cities and TSP-2 with 46 cities of the USA. It could therefore be applied as a generalized algorithm for TSP.

The equitable partitioning problem(EPP) is classified as [0/1] binary skill existence or nonexistence and integer skill levels such as [1,2,3,4,5]. There is well-known a polynomial-time optimal solution finding algorithm for binary skill EPP. On the other hand, tabu search a kind of metaheuristic has apply to integer skill level EPP is due to unknown polynomial-time algorithm for it and this problem is NP-hard. This paper suggests heuristic greedy algorithm with polynomial-time to find the optimal solution for integer skill level EPP. This algorithm descending sorts of skill level frequency for each field and decides the lower bound(LB) that more than the number of group, packing for each group bins first, than the students with less than LB allocates to each bin additionally. As a result of experimental data, this algorithm shows performance improvement than the result of tabu search.

This paper presents an advanced load allocation algorithm in Direct Load Control(DLC) system. It is important to aggregate a various demand side resource which is surely controllable at the peak power time for a successful DLC system. Previous load allocation algorithm appropriate for DLC system is based on interchanged information, but, this algorithm can not derive optimal solutions. In this paper, we develop the optimal algorithm and the new load allocation algorithm in polynomial time. The simulation results show that the proposed heuristic algorithm for DLC system is very effective.

We propose a new dual simplex method using a primal interior point. The dropping variable is chosen by utilizing the primal feasible interior point. For a given dual feasible basis, its corresponding primal infeasible basic vector and the interior point are used for obtaining a decreasing primal feasible point The computation time of moving on interior point in our method takes much less than that od Karmarker-type interior methods. Since any polynomial time interior methods can be applied to our method we conjectured that a slight modification of our method can give a polynomial time complexity.

The purpose of this study is to develop an efficient exact algorithm for the problem of scheduling n in dependent jobs on m unequal parallel processors to minimize makespan. Efficient solutions are already known for the preemptive case. But for the non-preemptive case, this problem belongs to a set of strong NP-complete problems. Hence, it is unlikely that the polynomial time algorithm can be found. This is the reason why most investigations have bben directed toward the fast approximate algorithms and the worst-case analysis of algorithms. Recently, great advances have been made in mathematical theories regarding Lagrangean relaxation and the subgradient optimization procedure which updates the Lagrangean multipliers. By combining and the subgradient optimization procedure which updates the Lagrangean multipliers. By combining these mathematical tools with branch-and-bound procedures, these have been some successes in constructing pseudo-polynomial time algorithms for solving previously unsolved NP-complete problems. This study applied similar methodologies to the unequal parallel processor problem to find the efficient exact algorithm.

Meta-heuristic algorithms have been developed to efficiently solve difficult problems and obtain a global optimal solution. A common feature mimics phenomenon occurring in nature and reliably improves the solution through repetition. And at the same time, the probability is used to deviate from the regional optimal solution and approach the global optimal solution. This study compares the algorithm created based on the above common points with existed SA and HS to show advantages in time and accuracy of results. Existing algorithms have problems of low accuracy, high memory, long runtime, and ignorance. In a two-variable polynomial, the existing algorithms show that the memory increases and the accuracy decrease. In order to improve the accuracy, the new algorithm increases the number of initial inputs and increases the efficiency of the search by introducing a direction using vectors. And, in order to solve the optimization problem, the results of the last experiment were learned to show the learning effect in the next experiment. The new algorithm found a solution in a short time under the experimental conditions of long iteration counts using a two-variable polynomial and showed high accuracy. And, it shows that the learning effect is effective in repeated experiments.

In the absence of a polynomial time algorithm capable of obtaining the exact solutions to it, the domatic number problem (DNP) of dominating set (DS) has been regarded as NP-complete. This paper suggests polynomial-time complexity algorithm about DNP. In this paper, I select a vertex $v_i$ of the maximum degree ${\Delta}(G)$ as an element of a dominating set $D_i,i=1,2,{\cdots},k$, compute $D_{i+1}$ from a simplified graph of $V_{i+1}=V_i{\backslash}D_i$, and verify that $D_i$ is indeed a dominating set through $V{\backslash}D_i=N_G(D_i)$. When applied to 15 various graphs, the proposed algorithm has succeeded in bringing about exact solutions with polynomial-time complexity O(kn). Therefore, the proposed domatic number algorithm shows that the domatic number problem is in fact a P-problem.

In this paper we consider an alternate m machine scheduling problem in which each job having at most two eligible machines should be assigned with the objective of makespan minimization. For this problem. we propose a $O(m2^m)$ time rounding algorithm with performance ratio at most 1.5. For a little general problem where each job can be processed in at most three machines, we prove that a polynomial time algorithm does not exist with performance ratio less than 1.5.
