Set Covering, Packing and Partitioning Problems
where A is a mxn matrix of zeroes and ones, e = (1,...,1) is a vector of m ones and c is a vector of n (arbitrary) rational components. This pure 0-1 linear programming problem is called the set covering problem. When the inequalities are replaced by equations the problem is called the set partitioning problem, and when all of the ≥ constraints are replaced by ≤ constraints, the problem is call...
متن کاملSolving Set Partitioning Problems with Constraint Programming
This paper investigates the potential of constraint programming for solving set partitioning problems occurring in crew scheduling, where constraint programming is restricted to not employ external solvers, as for instance integer linear programming solvers. We evaluate preprocessing steps known from the OR literature on moderately sized set partitioning problems. Further, we propose a new prep...
متن کاملTighter Representations for Set Partitioning Problems
In this paper, we consider the set partitioning polytope and we begin by applying the reformulation-linearization technique of Sherali and Adams (1990, 1994) to generate a specialized hierarchy of relaxations by exploiting the structure of this polytope. We then show that several known classes of valid inequalities for this polytopc, as well as related tightening and composition rules, are auto...
متن کاملModelling transfer line design problem via a set partitioning problem
The design of a transfer line is considered. This line is used for a repetitive execution of a given set of operations to produce identical items. The line is composed of a sequence of workstations equipped with processing modules (blocks). Each block performs specific operations. The machined items move along the workstations in the same direction. There is the same cost associated with each w...
متن کاملConstraint Handling in Genetic Algorithms: The Set Partitioning Problem
In this paper we present a genetic algorithm-based heuristic for solving the set partitioning problem (SPP). The SPP is an important combinatorial optimisation problem used by many airlines as a mathematical model for flight crew scheduling. A key feature of the SPP is that it is a highly constrained problem, all constraints being equalities. New genetic algorithm (GA) components: separate fitn...
