Branch and bound, integer, and non-integer programming

چکیده
In this note we review the development of the first commercial branch and bound codes at CEIR/Scicon, with particular emphasis on those features not commonly emphasized today that is the use of branch and bound to handle discrete constructs, which, while often formally representable in terms of zero-one integer variables, can be handled more elegantly and effectively by applying branch and bound to the actual dichotomies in the model.

A generalized implicit enumeration algorithm for a class of integer nonlinear programming problems
Presented here is a generalization of the implicit enumeration algorithm that can be applied when the objec-tive function is being maximized and can be rewritten as the difference of two non-decreasing functions. Also developed is a computational algorithm, named linear speedup, to use whatever explicit linear constraints are present to speedup the search for a solution. The method is easy to u...
متن کاملA Non-linear Integer Bi-level Programming Model for Competitive Facility Location of Distribution Centers
The facility location problem is a strategic decision-making for a supply chain, which determines the profitability and sustainability of its components. This paper deals with a scenario where two supply chains, consisting of a producer, a number of distribution centers and several retailers provided with similar products, compete to maintain their market shares by opening new distribution cent...
متن کاملOPTIMIZATION OF A PRODUCTION LOT SIZING PROBLEM WITH QUANTITY DISCOUNT
Dynamic lot sizing problem is one of the significant problem in industrial units and it has been considered by many researchers. Considering the quantity discount in purchasing cost is one of the important and practical assumptions in the field of inventory control models and it has been less focused in terms of stochastic version of dynamic lot sizing problem. In this paper, stochastic dyn...
متن کاملInvestigation of the two-machine flow shop scheduling problem to minimize total energy costs with time-dependent energy prices
In this paper, the problem of two-machine flow shop scheduling to minimize total energy costs under time-of-use tariffs is investigated. As the objective function of this study is not a regular measure, allowing intentional idle-time can be advantageous. So this study considers two approaches, one for non-delay version of the problem and the other one for a situation when inserting intentional ...
متن کاملRESOLUTION METHOD FOR MIXED INTEGER LINEAR MULTIPLICATIVE-LINEAR BILEVEL PROBLEMS BASED ON DECOMPOSITION TECHNIQUE
In this paper, we propose an algorithm base on decomposition technique for solvingthe mixed integer linear multiplicative-linear bilevel problems. In actuality, this al-gorithm is an application of the algorithm given by G. K. Saharidis et al for casethat the rst level objective function is linear multiplicative. We use properties ofquasi-concave of bilevel programming problems and decompose th...
متن کاملWell-dispersed subsets of non-dominated solutions for MOMILP problem
This paper uses the weighted L$_1-$norm to propose an algorithm for finding a well-dispersed subset of non-dominated solutions of multiple objective mixed integer linear programming problem. When all variables are integer it finds the whole set of efficient solutions. In each iteration of the proposed method only a mixed integer linear programming problem is solved and its optimal solutions gen...
