Discrete optimization: the state of the art

Contributor(s): Material type: TextTextSeries: Topics in discrete mathematics: 11Publication details: Amsterdam, Boston Elsevier 2003 Description: 580 pISBN:
  • 9780444512956
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 519.6
Summary: One of the most frequently occurring types of optimization problems involves decision variables which have to take integer values. From a practical point of view, such problems occur in countless areas of management, engineering, administration, etc., and include such problems as location of plants or warehouses, scheduling of aircraft, cutting raw materials to prescribed dimensions, design of computer chips, increasing reliability or capacity of networks, etc. This is the class of problems known in the professional literature as "discrete optimization" problems. The surveys in this volume present a comprehensive overview of the state of the art in discrete optimization and are written by the most prominent researchers from all over the world
