A two-stage approach for bi-objective integer linear programming
We present a new exact approach for solving bi-objective integer linear programs. The new approach efficiently employs two of the existing exact algorithms in the literature, including the balanced box and the -constraint methods, in two stages. A computationally study shows that (1) the new approach solves less single-objective integer linear programs in comparison to the balanced box method, ...
متن کاملTwo-Stage Stochastic Linear Programming: The Conditional Scenario Approach
In this paper we consider the Two-stage Stochastic Linear Programming (TSLP) problem with continuous random parameters. A common way to approximate the TSLP problem, generally intractable, is to discretize the random parameters into scenarios. Another common approximation only considers the expectation of the parameters, that is, the expected scenario. In this paper we introduce the conditional...
متن کاملA robust approach to IMRT optimization.
Managing uncertainty is a major challenge in radiation therapy treatment planning, including uncertainty induced by intrafraction motion, which is particularly important for tumours in the thorax and abdomen. Common methods to account for motion are to introduce a margin or to convolve the static dose distribution with a motion probability density function. Unlike previous work in this area, ou...
متن کاملA goal programming approach for fuzzy flexible linear programming problems
We are concerned with solving Fuzzy Flexible Linear Programming (FFLP) problems. Even though, this model is very practical and is useful for many applications, but there are only a few methods for its situation. In most approaches proposed in the literature, the solution process needs at least, two phases where each phase needs to solve a linear programming problem. Here, we propose a method t...
متن کاملA Primal-Dual Decomposition-Based Interior Point Approach to Two-Stage Stochastic Linear Programming
Decision making under uncertainty is a challenge faced by many decision makers. Stochastic programming is a major tool developed to deal with optimization with uncertainties that has found applications in, e.g. finance, such as asset-liability and bond-portfolio management. Computationally however, many models in stochastic programming remain unsolvable because of overwhelming dimensionality. F...
