Computer programs to solve linear programming problems by the simplex method have existed since the early 1950s. They remain the central feature of today's mathematical programming systems. There has ...

Abstract: This paper deals with a campaign planning problem typical for multi-product batch plants. Here the campaign size (production amount of one continuous production run) is often constrained by ...

Start working toward program admission and requirements right away. Work you complete in the non-credit experience will transfer to the for-credit experience when you ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the Flexible Layout Design Problem (FLDP), which involves a set of stations arranged in a matrix-structured manufacturing system (MMS). Initially, the main objectives ...

Objective functions in the actuator-position optimization problems for linear time-invariant systems were scrutinized by using relationship between objective functions of the actuator-position ...

In this study, we propose an exact method for optimizing a linear function over the efficient set of a multi-objective transportation problem (MOTP). This type of problem arises when a decision maker ...
