determination a sequence of extracting ore is one of the most important problems in mine annual production scheduling. production scheduling affects mining performance especially in a poly-metallic open pit mine with considering the imposed operational and physical constraints mandated by high levels of reliability in relation to the obtained actual results. one of the important operational con...

location selection is one of the most important activities in establishment of bank branches. choosing a suitable location have a direct impact on the performance of banks and also facilitating the achievement of other objectives. there are a lot of influential factors on the location selection which are complicated and therefore the traditional methods cannot be used. so we need to have a suit...

in this paper, we deal to obtain some new complexity results for solving semidefinite optimization (sdo) problem by interior-point methods (ipms). we define a new proximity function for the sdo by a new kernel function. furthermore we formulate an algorithm for a primal dual interior-point method (ipm) for the sdo by using the proximity function and give its complexity analysis, and then we sho...
