An exact DSatur-based algorithm for the Equitable Coloring Problem

Discrete Mathematics 2014-05-28 v1

Abstract

This paper describes an exact algorithm for the Equitable Coloring Problem, based on the well known DSatur algorithm for the classic Coloring Problem with new pruning rules specifically derived from the equity constraint. Computational experiences show that our algorithm is competitive with those known in literature.
