Local Search is an incomplete algorithm that continuously improves the quality of solutions through a finite number of iterations within a cutoff time. After the cutoff period, it outputs the found optimal objective function value and solution set.
The paper, titled “Local Search for Integer Quadratic Programming,” describes the LS-IQCQP solver, including its local search framework, operator design, and experimental performance, and has been accepted by INFORMS Journal on Computing.
