This paper presents a mixed-integer goal programming model for expense budgeting in a hospital nursing department. The model incorporates several different objectives based upon such considerations as ...

Traffic signals can be synchronized so that a car, starting at one end of a main artery and traveling at preassigned speeds, can go to the other end without stopping for a red light. The portion of a ...

Technical Terms Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP): An optimisation framework that integrates discrete variables with continuous nonlinear functions to model complex decision-making problems.

The team proposed a Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) model to formulate the heat dissipation performance objective and the constraints of component 3D geometry, system stability, and special ...
