The Lagrangian problem can thus be used in place of a linear programming relaxation to provide bounds in a branch and bound algorithm. This approach has led to dramatically improved algorithms for a ...

Many important practical computations, such as scheduling, combinatorial, and optimization problems, use techniques known as integer programming to find the best combination of many variables. In ...

Balancing and sequencing of assembly lines by Scholl, Armin, 1966- Publication date 1999 Topics Assembly-line balancing Publisher New York : Physica-Verlag Collection internetarchivebooks; inlibrary; ...

Disassembly production lines that employ shared stations with multiple workers and robots are ideal for addressing obsolete products with complex structures and hazardous parts. In this study, a ...

We assume that the k -linear factors of the upper level problem and the l -linear factors of the lower level problem to be non-negative. In this paper, we propose an algorithm based on branch-and-cut ...

Linear Programming Supply Chain Optimization using Binary and Integer Constraints. There are five customers whose demand has to be satisfied by building one or two warehouses. The table below shows ...

Now it’s time for accountability and action from leaders at the local, state and federal level to implement these recommendations and break out of the binary that has harmed our communities for ...
