Integer programming, a cornerstone of combinatorial optimisation, focuses on the selection of discrete decision variables to solve complex real‐world problems such as scheduling, network design and ...

Abstract: This chapter presents development of the random search method in context of the linear integer programming model, mixed-integer programming model and the extreme point mathematical ...

The objective of the 3D-SCALO problem is to assign the given components to optimal mounting surfaces and position them at the best locations, while satisfying the requirements for (1) heat dissipation ...

This paper gives integer linear programming (ILP) models for scheduling the League Phase of one of the most popular professional club competitions in the world, UEFA Champion’s League. There are 36 ...

Integer linear programming can help find the answer to a variety of real-world problems. Now researchers have found a much faster way to do it. The traveling salesperson problem is one of the oldest ...
