Download or read book Minimum Concave-cost Network Flow Problems written by G. M. Guisewite and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 36 pages. 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 Handbook of Global Optimization by : Panos M. Pardalos
Download or read book Handbook of Global Optimization written by Panos M. Pardalos and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-18 with total page 571 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1995 the Handbook of Global Optimization (first volume), edited by R. Horst, and P.M. Pardalos, was published. This second volume of the Handbook of Global Optimization is comprised of chapters dealing with modern approaches to global optimization, including different types of heuristics. Topics covered in the handbook include various metaheuristics, such as simulated annealing, genetic algorithms, neural networks, taboo search, shake-and-bake methods, and deformation methods. In addition, the book contains chapters on new exact stochastic and deterministic approaches to continuous and mixed-integer global optimization, such as stochastic adaptive search, two-phase methods, branch-and-bound methods with new relaxation and branching strategies, algorithms based on local optimization, and dynamical search. Finally, the book contains chapters on experimental analysis of algorithms and software, test problems, and applications.

Book Synopsis State of the Art in Global Optimization by : Christodoulos A. Floudas
Download or read book State of the Art in Global Optimization written by Christodoulos A. Floudas and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 638 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Optimization problems abound in most fields of science, engineering, and tech nology. In many of these problems it is necessary to compute the global optimum (or a good approximation) of a multivariable function. The variables that define the function to be optimized can be continuous and/or discrete and, in addition, many times satisfy certain constraints. Global optimization problems belong to the complexity class of NP-hard prob lems. Such problems are very difficult to solve. Traditional descent optimization algorithms based on local information are not adequate for solving these problems. In most cases of practical interest the number of local optima increases, on the aver age, exponentially with the size of the problem (number of variables). Furthermore, most of the traditional approaches fail to escape from a local optimum in order to continue the search for the global solution. Global optimization has received a lot of attention in the past ten years, due to the success of new algorithms for solving large classes of problems from diverse areas such as engineering design and control, computational chemistry and biology, structural optimization, computer science, operations research, and economics. This book contains refereed invited papers presented at the conference on "State of the Art in Global Optimization: Computational Methods and Applications" held at Princeton University, April 28-30, 1995. The conference presented current re search on global optimization and related applications in science and engineering. The papers included in this book cover a wide spectrum of approaches for solving global optimization problems and applications.

Book Synopsis Minimum-Cost Flows in Networks with Upper Bounded Arcs and Concave Cost Functions by : Wayne Jay Hallenbeck (Jr)
Download or read book Minimum-Cost Flows in Networks with Upper Bounded Arcs and Concave Cost Functions written by Wayne Jay Hallenbeck (Jr) and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An algorithm is presented for solving minimum-cost flow problems in which each arc of the network has a finite maximum flow capacity and a concave cost function associated with sending flow along that arc. Each cost function is broken into a series of cost increments through the use of piecewise linear approximations. The algorithm takes any feasible solution and recirculates flow over less costly cycles to obtain an optimal solution. A modification which handles the existence of non-zero lower bounds on flow through the various arcs is also given. (Author).
