Integer programming and combinatorial optimization form the backbone of many decision-making and resource allocation problems across diverse fields, from logistics and telecommunications to finance ...

This paper describes a greedy heuristic for a class of combinatorial optimization problems; a central feature of the method being a look-ahead capability. The power of the heuristic is demonstrated ...

Conventional quantum algorithms are not feasible for solving combinatorial optimization problems (COPs) with constraints in the operation time of quantum computers. To address this issue, researchers ...
