Formulate linear and integer programming problems for solving commonly encountered optimization problems. Understand how approximation algorithms compute solutions that are guaranteed to be within ...

A timetabling problem is formulated as a large integer linear programming problem in 0-1 variables. A solution method based on Lagrangean relaxation coupled with subgradient optimization is presented.

Assume the elements of A, b, c are all rational. This paper characterizes the feasible solutions of P 1, shows that P 1 is equivalent to a problem of minimizing a concave quadratic objective function ...

Roughly, we will cover the following topics (some of them may be skipped depending on the time available). Linear Programming: Basics, Simplex Algorithm, and Duality. Applications of Linear ...

Linear Relaxation: The process of removing the integer constraints from an integer programming problem to solve an easier continuous problem that provides bounds for the original.

Modern optimization theory, algorithms, and applications in process engineering. Topics include the fundamentals of linear programming, integer programming, nonlinear programming, mixed-integer ...

Marshall, Paul W. "Linear Programming: A Technique for Analyzing Resource Allocation Problems." Harvard Business School Background Note 171-322, January 1971. (Revised November 1975 ...

Integer Programming and Cutting Plane Methods Publication Trend The graph below shows the total number of publications each year in Integer Programming and Cutting Plane Methods.

In this example, the number of integer iterations (INT_ITER=) is zero, which means that the preprocessing has reduced the gap between the relaxed linear problem and the mixed integer program to zero.
