Niche Search: An application to the Manhattan Newspaper problem.

In this paper we decribe a hybrid strategy for solving combinatorial optimisation problemms, obtained by coupling a local search method to an evolutionary algorithm, and we provide an application to the Manhattan newspaper problem. The local search method has been devised specifically for this class of problems. It is based on a composite neighbourhood, which is searched iteratively up to the point where no further improvements can be made.
