A Mathematical Optimization Model for Solving Minimum Ordering Problem with Constraint Analysis and some Generalizations

In this paper, a mathematical method is proposed to formulate a generalized ordering problem. This model is formed as a linear optimization model in which some variables are binary. The constraints of the problem have been analyzed with the emphasis on the assessment of their importance in the formulation. On the one hand, these constraints enforce conditions on an arbitrary subgraph and then g...

Constraint Programming with Multisets

We propose extending constraint solvers with multiset variables. That is, variables whose values are multisets. Such an extension can help prevent introducing unnecessary symmetry into a model. We identify a number of different representations for multiset variables, and suggest primitive and global constraints on multiset variables. Surprisingly, unlike finite domain variables, decomposition o...

Multiset Ordering Constraints

We identify a new and important global (or non-binary) constraint. This constraint ensures that the values taken by two vectors of variables, when viewed as multisets, are ordered. This constraint is useful for a number of different applications including breaking symmetry and fuzzy constraint satisfaction. We propose and implement an efficient linear time algorithm for enforcing generalised ar...

Static Symmetry Breaking with the Reflex Ordering

LexLeader, a state of the art static symmetry breaking method, adds a lex ordering constraint for each variable symmetry of the problem to select the lexicographically least solution. In practice, the same method can also be used for partial symmetry breaking by breaking only a given subset of symmetries. We propose a new total ordering, reflex, as basis of a new symmetry breaking constraint th...

Resource Constrained Project Scheduling with Material Ordering: Two Hybridized Meta-Heuristic Approaches (TECHNICAL NOTE)

Resource constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) is mainly investigated with the objective of either minimizing project makespan or maximizing project net present value. However, when material planning plays a key role in a project, the existing models cannot help determining material ordering plans to minimize material costs. In this paper, the RCPSP incorporated with the material order...
