There are several studies on solving the quadratic assignment problem (QAP) withGPUs using an evolutionary computation. In our previous studies [3], we applied GPU computation to solve quadratic assignment problems (QAPs) using a distributed parallel GA model on GPUs. However, in those studies no local searches were applied. In this QAP solver, we implemented a parallel ACO for QAPs on a GPU by combining tabu search (TS) with ACO in CUDA [4].
