چکیده

The ring loading problem with integer demand splitting is that of routing κ traffic requirements on an undirected ring network. We present a compact polyhedral description of the set of feasible solutions to the problem, whose number of variables and constraints is O(κ). © 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

An Lp-based Approach to the Ring Loading Problem with Integer Demand Splitting

We consider the Ring Loading Problem with integer demand splitting (RLP). The problem is given with a ring network, in which a required traffic requirement between each selected node pair must be routed on it. Each traffic requirement can be routed in both directions of the ring network while splitting each traffic requirement in two directions only by integer is allowed. The problem is to find...

Linear time algorithms for the ring loading problem with demand splitting

Given a ring of size n and a set K of traffic demands, the ring loading problem with demand splitting (RLPW) is to determine a routing to minimize the maximum load on the edges. In the problem, a demand between two nodes can be split into two flows and then be routed along the ring in different directions. If the two flows obtained by splitting a demand are restricted to integers, this restrict...

A Mixed Integer Programming Formulation for the Heterogeneous Fixed Fleet Open Vehicle Routing Problem

The heterogeneous fixed fleet open vehicle routing problem (HFFOVRP) is one of the most significant extension problems of the open vehicle routing problem (OVRP). The HFFOVRP is the problem of designing collection routes to a number of predefined nodes by a fixed fleet number of vehicles with various capacities and related costs. In this problem, the vehicle doesn’t return to the depot after se...
