In this paper, we propose a new global router, BoxRouter, powered by the concept of box expansion and progressive integer linear programming (ILP). BoxRouter first uses a simple P...
Valid inequalities for 0-1 knapsack polytopes often prove useful when tackling hard 0-1 Linear Programming problems. To generate such inequalities, one needs separation algorithms...
A number of Integer Linear Program (ILP) formulations for both static and dynamic lightpath allocation have been proposed, for the design of survivable WDM networks. However, such ...
In this paper we introduce a new general framework for set covering problems, based on the combination of randomized rounding of the (near-)optimal solution of the Linear Programm...
The simplex algorithm computes the simplex multipliers by solving a system (or two triangular systems) at each iteration. This note offers an efficient approach to updating the sim...
