This paper explores the Minimum Weighted Independent Dominating Set Problem and proposes novel approaches to tackle it. Namely, two integer linear programming formulations and a fast greedy heuristic as an alternative approach are proposed. Extensive computational experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance of these approaches on the established set of benchmark instances for the problem. The obtained results demonstrate that the introduced integer linear programming models are able to achieve optimal solutions on all instances with 100 nodes and significantly outperform existing exact methods on numerous other instances. Additionally, the greedy heuristic exhibits superior performance compared to competing greedy heuristics, particularly on random graphs. These findings suggest promising directions for future research, including the integration of these methods into hybrid algorithms or metaheuristic frameworks.
