A parametric form of tabu-search is proposed for solving mixed integer programming (MIP) problems that creates and solves a series of linear programming (LP) problems embodying br...
In this paper we develop a variable neighborhood search (VNS) heuristic for solving mixed-integer programs (MIPs). It uses CPLEX, the general-purpose MIP solver, as a black-box. N...
We collected and analyzed a number of linear programming problems that have been shown to cycle (not converge) when solved by Dantzig's original simplex algorithm. For these ...
Data mining (DM) techniques are being increasingly used in many modern organizations to retrieve valuable knowledge structures from organizational databases, including data wareho...
We propose fast heuristics for large-scale covering-location problems in which the set of demand points is discrete and the set of potential location sites is continuous. These he...
