The problem of interest is covering a given point set with homothetic copies of several convex containers C1,...,Ck, while the objective is to minimize the maximum over the dilatat...
We consider the polyhedral approach to solving the capacitated facility location problem. The valid inequalities considered are the knapsack, ow cover, e ective capacity, single d...
This paper introduces disjunctive decomposition for two-stage mixed 0-1 stochastic integer programs (SIPs) with random recourse. Disjunctive decomposition allows for cutting plane...
How-To queries answer fundamental data analysis questions of the form: “How should the input change in order to achieve the desired output”. As a Reverse Data Management probl...
The question of nonemptiness of the intersection of a nested sequence of closed sets is fundamental in a number of important optimization topics, including the existence of optima...
