ABSTRACT

We describe FORTRAN subroutines for approximately solving the feedback vertex and arc set problems on directed graphs using a Greedy Randomized Adaptive Search Procedure (GRASP).  The algorithms are described in detail.  Implementation and usage of the package is outlined and computational experiments are reported illustrating solution quality as a function of running time.  The source code can be downloaded from the URL http://www.research.att.com/~mgcr/src/gfsp.tar.gz.
