The minimal cost maximum matching of a graph (supplementary remarks)
1971
In addition to the preceding paper, it will be shown that (1) the matching problem is closely related to the linear assignment problem and how (2) this property can be taken advantage of for solving the matching problem.
A graph colouring model for assigning a heterogeneous workforce to a given schedule
1996
Abstract We analyze a heterogeneous workforce assignment problem in which the minimum number of workers required to carry out a machine load plan is calculated. The problem is formulated as a restricted vertex colouring problem and a branch and bound algorithm is presented. The special characteristics of the graph to be coloured allow an efficient implementation of the branch and bound. Computational results show that the algorithm can solve problems of 50 activities, 5, 10 and 15 machines and between 2 to 15 different types of workers in just a few seconds.
