Integer programming has many applications in economics and management. Applying lexicographic ordering and linear programming, we develop an iterative method for integer programming, which defines an increasing mapping from a finite lattice into itself. Given any polytope, within a finite number of iterations, the method either yields an integer point in the polytope or proves no such point exi...

In this paper, the weighted goal program is reformulated as a lexicographic goal program with two main goals. The first goal, which has the first priority, seeks to minimize the maximum weighted undesired normalized deviation. The second goal, having the second priority, minimizes the sum of the undesired normalized deviations. This approach provides a solution that is consistent with the weigh...

in this paper the real-world occurrence of the multiple-product multiple-constraint single period newsboy problem with two objectives, in which there is incremental discounts on the purchasing prices, is investigated. the constraints are the warehouse capacity and the batch forms of the order placements. the first objective of this problem is to find the order quantities such that the expected ...

Nowadays, much attention has been paid to intrusion detection system (IDS) which is closely linked to the safe use of network services. Several machine-learning paradigms including neural networks, linear genetic programming (LGP), support vector machines (SVM), Bayesian networks, multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS) fuzzy inference systems (FISs), etc. have been investigated for the...

the present study aims to provide a solution to optimize land use through multi-objective linear programming, and to solve the conflicts generated in the process using game theory, in two cities of gorgan and kurdkoy, iran. the primary land use planning was completed for seven land use through multi-criteria evaluation and then a first allocation was implanted using mola. in the secondary land ...

A developmental co-evolutionary genetic programming approach (PAM DGP) and a standard linear genetic programming (LGP) stock trading system are applied to a number of stocks across market sectors. Both GP techniques were found to be robust to market fluctuations and reactive to opportunities associated with stock price rise and fall, with PAM DGP generating notably greater profit in some stock ...

Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV), genus Phlebovirus, family Bunyaviridae is a zoonotic arthropod-borne virus able to transition between distant host species, causing potentially severe disease in humans and ruminants. Viral proteins are encoded by three genomic segments, with the medium M segment coding for four proteins: nonstructural NSm protein, two glycoproteins Gn and Gc and large 78 kDa gly...
