Abstract

This paper constructs an algorithm to solve the fractional assignment problem. Algorithms that are currently used are mostly based on parametric approaches and must solve a sequence of optimization procedures. They also neglect the difficulties caused by degeneracy. The proposed algorithm performs optimization once and overcomes degeneracy. The main features of the algorithm are an effective initial heuristic approach, a simple labelling procedure and an implicit primal-dual schema. A numerical example is presented and demonstrates that the proposed algorithm is easy to apply. Computational results are compared with those from other developed methods. The results show that the proposed algorithm is efficient.
