摘要:
We present a detailed and up-to-date survey of the literature on parallel branch-and-bound algorithms. We synthesize previous work in this area and propose a new classification of parallel branch-and-bound algorithms. This classification is used to analyze the methods proposed in the literature. To facilitate our analysis, we give a new characterization of branch-and-bound algorithms, which consists of isolating the performed operations without specifying any particular order for their execution.
