Opening a web site at which one can get a benchmark input data set to solve the set covering problem

Abstract A web site has been opened, at which one can get medium sized benchmark input data sets for the Set Covering problem. Right now it has about 130 input data sets in LINGO format and in fp-out format, the latter of which is an input data format for our Genetic Algorithm. And we have provided the web site with some useful utility programs like an executable program which converts fp-out format input data sets into MPS/X format ones and an executable Genetic Program to approximately solve the Set Covering problem whose row size and column size are less than one thousand.
