despite existing various integer programming for sequencing problems, there is not enoughinformation about practical values of the models. this paper considers the problem of minimizing maximumlateness with release dates and presents four different mixed integer programming (mip) models to solve thisproblem. these models have been formulated for the classical single machine problem, namely sequ...

Despite the success of constraint programming (CP) for scheduling, the much wider penetration of mixed integer programming (MIP) technology into business applications means that many practical scheduling problems are being addressed with MIP, at least as an initial approach. Furthermore, there has been impressive and well-documented improvements in the power of generic MIP solvers over the past...

In this paper recently developed mixed-integer programming (MIP) tools to the problem of optimal siting and sizing of distributed generators in a distribution network. Here three methodologies for solving the DGPP via mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) and mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) approaches are compared. The single MILP approach uses the well-known DC linear approximati...

Pivot-and-Fix, a new primal heuristic for finding feasible solutions for mixed integer programming (MIP) problems is presented in this paper. Pivot-and-Fixtries to explore potentially promising extreme points of the polyhedron of the problem and by forming smaller serach trees looks for integer feasible solutions. Computational results show that this heuristic could help MIP solvers to perform ...

This paper shows how valid inequalities based on the mixing set can be used in a mixed integer programming (MIP) solver. It discusses the relation of mixing inequalities to flow path and mixed integer rounding inequalities and how currently used separation algorithms already generate cuts implicitly that can be seen as mixing cuts. Further on, it describes two new separation algorithms that gen...

Mixed integer programming (MIP) is a powerful modelling tool for decision-making in the industry and in the public sector. Integer requirements are essential to model a wide variety of situations involving assignment restrictions, logical constraints and yes/no decisions, to name a few. Usually real-life applications result in mixed integer programs that are large in size and that are beyond th...

in this paper, a multi-product single machine scheduling problem with the possibility of producing defected jobs, is considered. we concern rework in the scheduling environment and propose a mixed-integer programming (mip) model for the problem.  based on the philosophy of just-in-time production, minimization of the sum of earliness and tardiness costs is taken into account as the objective fu...

This study addresses a stochastic structure for generation companies (GenCoʼs) that participate in hydro-thermal self-scheduling with a wind power plant on short-term scheduling for simultaneous reserve energy and energy market. In stochastic scheduling of HTSS with a wind power plant, in addition to various types of uncertainties such as energy price, spinning /non-spinning reserve prices, unc...

A famous travelling salesman problem, appearing simple to state but complex solve, has been widely investigated and various algorithms have proposed. In this article, mixed integer linear programming of python (MIP) is used model problem with varying input data. The result shows that small data the modelling code MIP executing quickly converging optimal value, while large scale require plenty c...

We study the mixed-integer rounding (MIR) closures of polyhedral sets. The MIR closure of a polyhedral set is equal to its split closure and the associated separation problem is NP-hard. We describe a mixed-integer programming (MIP) model with linear constraints and a non-linear objective for separating an arbitrary point from the MIR closure of a given mixed-integer set. We linearize the objec...
