Mixed-Integer Programs (MIP's) involving logical implications modelled through big-M coefficients, are notoriously among the hardest to solve. In this paper we propose and an...
The imposition of general disjunctions of the form “πx ≤ π0 ∨ πx ≥ π0 + 1”, where π, π0 are integer valued, is a fundamental operation in both the branch-and-bound...
Minimum-distance controlled tabular adjustment methods (CTA), and its restricted variants (RCTA), is a recent perturbative approach for tabular data protection. Given a table to be...
When a switching network topology is used for constructing optical cross-connects, as in the circuit switching case, no two routes are allowed to share a link. However, if two rou...
