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 ...

As the title suggests, I have a problem in which I need to formulate an LP model. I'm supposed to work in Excel and use the Solver Add-in feature.<BR><BR>I've done several other problems already, but ...

An example of the quadratic assignment problem (QAP) is the facility location problem, in which n facilities are assigned, at minimum cost, to n sites. Between each pair of facilities, there is a ...

This example shows how to use PROC LP to solve a linear goal-programming problem. PROC LP has the ability to solve a series of linear programs, each with a new objective function. These objective ...

This paper studies the problem of simultaneously smoothing production and inventory and setting advertising levels. The models given are linear programming models, assuming a deterministic ...
