Using Branch-and-Price-and-Cut to Solve Origin-Destination Integer Multicommodity Flow Problems
We present a column-generation model and branch-and-price-and-cut algorithm for origin-destination integer multicommodity flow problems. The origin-destination integer multicommodity flow problem is a constrained version of the linear multicommodity flow problem in which flow of a commodity (defined in this case by an origin-destination pair) may use only one path from origin to destination. Br...
متن کاملA Fast Strategy to Find Solution for Survivable Multicommodity Network
This paper proposes an immediately efficient method, based on Benders Decomposition (BD), for solving the survivable capacitated network design problem. This problem involves selecting a set of arcs for building a survivable network at a minimum cost and within a satisfied flow. The system is subject to failure and capacity restriction. To solve this problem, the BD was initially proposed with ...
متن کاملUsing Branch-and-Price to Find High Quality Solutions Quickly
When integer programming (IP) models are used in operational situations there is a need to consider the tradeoff between the conflicting goals of solution quality and solution time, since for many problems solving realistic-size instances to a tight tolerance is still beyond the capability of state-of-the-art solvers. However, by appropriately defining small instances, good primal solutions fre...
متن کاملApplication of Tabu Search to a Special Class of Multicommodity Distribution Systems
Multicommodity distribution problem is one of the most interesting and useful models in mathematical programming due to its major role in distribution networks. The purpose of this paper is to describe and solve a special class of multicommodity distribution problems in which shipment of a commodity from a plant to a customer would go through different distribution centers. The problem is t...
متن کاملACO-Based Neighborhoods for Fixed-charge Capacitated Multi-commodity Network Design Problem
The fixed-charge Capacitated Multi-commodity Network Design (CMND) is a well-known problem of both practical and theoretical significance. Network design models represent a wide variety of planning and operation management issues in transportation telecommunication, logistics, production and distribution. In this paper, Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) based neighborhoods are proposed for CMND pro...
