Two-Level Optimization Problems with Infinite Number of Convex Lower Level Constraints
This paper proposes a new form of optimization problem which is a two-level programming problem with infinitely many lower level constraints. Firstly, we consider some lower level constraint qualifications (CQs) for this problem. Then, under these CQs, we derive formula for estimating the subdifferential of its valued function. Finally, we present some necessary optimality condit...
متن کاملA comment on scheduling two parallel machines with capacity constraints
In a recent paper [Discrete Appl. Math. 130 (2003) 449–467], Yang, Ye, and Zhang investigate the problem of scheduling independent jobs on two identical machines, with a limit on the number of jobs that can be assigned to each single machine, so as to minimize the total weighted completion time of the jobs. They provide a semidefinite programming based, polynomial time approximation algorithm w...
متن کاملA Mathematical Model for Scheduling Elective Surgeries for Minimizing the Waiting Times in Emergency Surgeries
The ever-increasing demands for surgeries and the limited resources force hospitals to have efficient management of resources, especially the expensive ones like operating rooms (ORs). Scheduling surgeries including sequencing them, assigning resources to them and determining their start times is a complicated task for hospital managers. Surgery referrals usually include elective surgeries that...
متن کاملA Two Level Approximation Technique for Structural Optimization
This work presents a method for optimum design of structures, where the design variables can he considered as Continuous or discrete. The variables are chosen as sizing variables as well as coordinates of joints. The main idea is to reduce the number of structural analyses and the overal cost of optimization. In each design cycle, first the structural response quantities such as forces, displac...
متن کاملA Nurse Scheduling Model under Real Life Constraints
Background and Objectives: In this paper, a real life nurse scheduling model is described based on the conditions in Iranian hospitals such as monthly shift rotation, consecutive morning and evening shifts and consecutive evening and night shift. Methods: The developed model considers both hospital constraints and nurses’ preferences. Hospital constraints include assigning adequate qualifie...
