Computing Near-Optimal Solutions to the Network Steiner Tree Problem Using Approximate and Heuristic Techniques

conference paper

English

This paper deals with the network Steiner tree problem. It proposes a mathematical model of this problem and its modification for including it in software package GAMS. As this optimisation tool is not able to find an optimum for larger instances in a reasonable amount of time we propose an approach that combines approximate and deterministic heuristic methods with stochastic heuristic techniques.
