Solving the quadratic assignment problem by means of general purpose mixed integer linear programming solvers
The Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP) can be solved by linearization, where one formulates the QAP as a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) problem. On the one hand, most of these linearization are tight, but hardly exploited within a reasonable computing time because of their size. On the other hand, Kaufman and Broeckx formulation [1] is the smallest of these linearizations, but very wea...
متن کاملProblem Solving by General Purpose Solvers
To solve problems abundant in real world applications, we have been proposing an approach of using general purpose solvers, since we cannot afford to develop special purpose algorithms for all individual problems. For this purpose, we have developed solvers for some standard problems such as CSP (constraint satisfaction problem), RCPSP (resource constrained project scheduling problem), GAP (gen...
متن کاملSolving the Installation Scheduling Problem Using Mixed Integer Linear Programming
for installing a large number of sizes and types of items (e.g., machines) over time so as to optimize some measure (e.g., initial capital investment), subject to various resource constraints. Examples of this problem are scheduling the installation of point-of-sale terminals in supermarket and retail chains, and teller terminals in banks. We have formulated the installation scheduling problem ...
متن کاملExploiting Packing Components in General-Purpose Integer Programming Solvers
The problem of packing boxes into a large box is often a part of a larger problem. For example in furniture supply chain applications, one needs to decide what trucks to use to transport furniture between production sites and distribution centers and stores, such that the furniture fits inside. Such problems are often formulated and sometimes solved using generalpurpose integer programming solv...
متن کاملGeneral Solution Methods for Mixed Integer Quadratic Programming and Derivative Free Mixed Integer Non-Linear Programming Problems
In a number of situations the derivative of the objective function of an optimization problem is not available. This thesis presents a novel algorithm for solving mixed integer programs when this is the case. The algorithm is the first developed for problems of this type which uses a trust region methodology. Three implementations of the algorithm are developed and deterministic proofs of conve...
