  • Abstract
    New constant weight codes are found by considering certain linear permutation groups. A code is obtained as a collection of orbits of words under such a group. This leads to a difficult optimization problem, where a stochastic search heuristic, tabu search, is used to find good solutions in a feasible amount of time. Nearly 40 new codes of length at most 28 are presented
