An example of the quadratic assignment problem (QAP) is the facility location problem, in which n facilities are assigned, at minimum cost, to n sites. Between each pair of facilities, there is a ...
Abstract: This paper presents a method to certify the computational complexity of a standard Branch and Bound method for solving Mixed-Integer Quadratic Programming (MIQP) problems defined as ...
This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract We introduce a new lower bound for the quadratic assignment problem based on a sequence of equivalent formulations of the problem. We present ...
Abstract: The Quadratic assignment problem (QAP), referring to finding an optimal assignment between two sets of interrelated objects, is a fundamental problem in combinatorial optimization. It is ...
ABSTRACT: For solving assignment problems of staff, equipment and task in engineering support action, a 3-Dimensional assignment model is established, which contains staff skill level, equipment ...
ABSTRACT: The paper presents an approach for avoiding and minimizing the complementary pivots in a simplex based solution method for a quadratic programming problem. The linearization of the problem ...
