Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "We discuss a wide range of results for minimum concave-cost network flow problems, including related applications, complexity issues, and solution techniques. Applications from production and inventory planning, and transportation and communication network design are discussed. New complexity results are proved which show that this problem is NP-hard for cases with cost functions other than fixed charge. An overview of solution techniques for this problem are presented, with some new results given regarding the implementation of a particular branch-and-bound approach."
Book Synopsis A Network Approach to a Multi-Facility, Multi-Product Scheduling Problem with Backordering by : Robert C. Dorsey
Download or read book A Network Approach to a Multi-Facility, Multi-Product Scheduling Problem with Backordering written by Robert C. Dorsey and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A multi-facility, multi-product production-inventory scheduling problem with backordering is considered over a finite planning horizon. The horizon consists of discrete production periods during which at most one product can be assigned to each facility. Product demands are assumed to be constant over a period but not necessarily the same in all periods. The problem objective is to determine an assignment of products to facilities which meets all product demands on a first-come, first-serve basis and minimizes the sum of production, inventory and backordering charges over the horizon. In a straightforward manner this problem is formulated as a linear, mixed integer program which can be given a network flow interpretation. However, the problem can be solved as a minimal-cost flow problem only for a very special case. It is then shown that the general problem can be reformulated as an all integer program which can be solved using any of the very efficient algorithms for finding minimal-cost flows in single commodity networks.

Book Synopsis Global Optimization by : Reiner Horst
Download or read book Global Optimization written by Reiner Horst and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 735 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main contents and character of the monograph did not change with respect to the first edition. However, within most chapters we incorporated quite a number of modifications which take into account the recent development of the field, the very valuable suggestions and comments that we received from numerous colleagues and students as well as our own experience while using the book. Some errors and misprints in the first edition are also corrected. Reiner Horst May 1992 Hoang Tuy PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION The enormous practical need for solving global optimization problems coupled with a rapidly advancing computer technology has allowed one to consider problems which a few years aga would have been considered computationally intractable. As a consequence, we are seeing the creation of a large and increasing number of diverse algorithms for solving a wide variety of multiextremal global optimization problems. The goal of this book is to systematically clarify and unify these diverse approaches in order to provide insight into the underlying concepts and their pro perties. Aside from a coherent view of the field much new material is presented.

Book Synopsis Equilibrium Problems and Variational Models by : P. Daniele
Download or read book Equilibrium Problems and Variational Models written by P. Daniele and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume, devoted to variational analysis and its applications, collects selected and refereed contributions, which provide an outline of the field. The meeting of the title "Equilibrium Problems and Variational Models", which was held in Erice (Sicily) in the period June 23 - July 2 2000, was the occasion of the presentation of some of these papers; other results are a consequence of a fruitful and constructive atmosphere created during the meeting. New results, which enlarge the field of application of variational analysis, are presented in the book; they deal with the vectorial analysis, time dependent variational analysis, exact penalization, high order deriva tives, geometric aspects, distance functions and log-quadratic proximal methodology. The new theoretical results allow one to improve in a remarkable way the study of significant problems arising from the applied sciences, as continuum model of transportation, unilateral problems, multicriteria spatial price models, network equilibrium problems and many others. As noted in the previous book "Equilibrium Problems: Nonsmooth Optimization and Variational Inequality Models", edited by F. Giannessi, A. Maugeri and P.M. Pardalos, Kluwer Academic Publishers, Vol. 58 (2001), the progress obtained by variational analysis has permitted to han dle problems whose equilibrium conditions are not obtained by the mini mization of a functional. These problems obey a more realistic equilibrium condition expressed by a generalized orthogonality (complementarity) con dition, which enriches our knowledge of the equilibrium behaviour. Also this volume presents important examples of this formulation.

Book Synopsis Network Models for Production Scheduling Problems with Convex Cost and Batch Processing by : H. Donald Ratliff
Download or read book Network Models for Production Scheduling Problems with Convex Cost and Batch Processing written by H. Donald Ratliff and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper considers a class of production scheduling problems which can be modeled as network flow problems. The problems are addressed under the assumption that production occurs in batches. We also require that the cost function be convex and separable. The model applies for a number of well known production scheduling problems and will handle multiple products and multiple facilities. (Author).
Book Synopsis Approximation and Complexity in Numerical Optimization by : Panos M. Pardalos
Download or read book Approximation and Complexity in Numerical Optimization written by Panos M. Pardalos and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 597 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been much recent progress in approximation algorithms for nonconvex continuous and discrete problems from both a theoretical and a practical perspective. In discrete (or combinatorial) optimization many approaches have been developed recently that link the discrete universe to the continuous universe through geomet ric, analytic, and algebraic techniques. Such techniques include global optimization formulations, semidefinite programming, and spectral theory. As a result new ap proximate algorithms have been discovered and many new computational approaches have been developed. Similarly, for many continuous nonconvex optimization prob lems, new approximate algorithms have been developed based on semidefinite pro gramming and new randomization techniques. On the other hand, computational complexity, originating from the interactions between computer science and numeri cal optimization, is one of the major theories that have revolutionized the approach to solving optimization problems and to analyzing their intrinsic difficulty. The main focus of complexity is the study of whether existing algorithms are efficient for the solution of problems, and which problems are likely to be tractable. The quest for developing efficient algorithms leads also to elegant general approaches for solving optimization problems, and reveals surprising connections among problems and their solutions. A conference on Approximation and Complexity in Numerical Optimization: Con tinuous and Discrete Problems was held during February 28 to March 2, 1999 at the Center for Applied Optimization of the University of Florida.
