The computational development of optimization tools is a key component within the MIP community and has proven to be a challenging task. It requires great knowledge of the well-established methods, ...

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 ...

ABSTRACT: With the development of the domestic economy and the increase in household income, the demand for investment has been growing, and funds are widely favored for their safety and flexibility.

Abstract: This paper presents a non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) model based on two-stage mixed-integer linear programming theory. Compared with other mixed integer optimization-based models, this ...

Integer Linear Programming (ILP) is the foundation of combinatorial optimization, which is extensively applied across numerous industries to resolve challenging decision-making issues. Under a set of ...

Abstract: In this paper, a design framework based on integer linear programming is proposed for optimizing sparse array structures. We resort to binary vectors to formulate the design problem for ...

ABSTRACT: The objective of this tutorial is to present the fundamental theory of Karp, Miller and Winograd, whose seminal paper laid the foundations regarding the systematic description of the ...

Since the open-pit precedence-constrained production scheduling problem is an NP-hard problem, solving it is always a challenging task, especially from a long-term perspective because a mineral ...

We study a class of integer bilevel problems, the so-called Integer Linear Multiplicative Bilevel Problem, ILMBP, where the constraints are linear and both the upper level problem and the lower level ...
