Many optimal decision problems in scientific, engineering, and public sector applications involve both discrete decisions nonlinear system dynamics that affect the quality of final design or plan. These lead to mixed-integer programming (MINLP) combine combinatorial difficulty optimizing over variable sets with challenges handling functions. We review models MINLP, survey state art methods for solving this challenging class problems. Most solution MINLP apply some form tree search....
Abstract Many industrial problems can be naturally formulated using mixed integer non-linear programming (MINLP) models and solved by spatial Branch&Bound (sBB) techniques. We study the impact of two important parts sBB methods: bounds tightening (BT) branching strategies. extend a technique originally developed for MILP, reliability branching, to MINLP case. Motivated demand open-source solvers real-world problems, we have an software package named couenne (Convex Over- Under-ENvelopes...
Abstract We investigate a network design problem under traffic uncertainty that arises when provisioning Virtual Private Networks (VPNs): given set of terminals must communicate with one another, and possible matrices, sufficient capacity has to be reserved on the links large underlying public support all matrices while minimizing total reservation cost. The admits several versions depending desired topology links, nature data uncertainty. present compact linear mixed‐integer programming...
