this paper presents an application of benders decomposition to deal with the complexities in the simultaneous generation expansion planning (gep) and transmission expansion planning (tep). unlike the power system operation fields of study, the power system planning methods are not expected to be fast. however, it is always preferable to speed up computations to provide more analysis options for...

We describe a decomposition algorithm that combines Benders and scenariobased Lagrangean decomposition for two-stage stochastic programming investment planning problems with complete recourse, where the first-stage variables are mixedinteger and the second-stage variables are continuous. The algorithm is based on the cross-decomposition scheme and fully integrates primal and dual information in...

Branch-and-Check, introduced ten years ago, is a generalization of logic-based Benders decomposition. The key extension is to solve the Benders sub-problems at each feasible solution of the master problem rather than only at an optimal solution. We perform the first systematic empirical comparison of logic-based Benders decomposition and branchand-check. On four problem types the results indica...

This paper proposes a method of generating valid integer Benders cuts for a general class of integer programming problems. A generic valid Benders cut in disjunctive form is presented rst, as a basis for the subsequent derivations of simple valid cuts. Under a qualiication condition, a simple valid Benders cut in linear form can be identiied. A cut generation problem is formulated to elicit it....

This paper examines Benders decomposition for a useful class of variational inequality (VI) problems that can model, e.g., economic equilibrium, games or traffic equilibrium. The dual of the given VI is defined. Benders decomposition of the

The renowned nursing shortage has attracted much attention from national level law makers, state legislatures, commercial organizations, and researchers due to its direct impact on the quality of patient care. High workloads and undesirable schedules are two major issues that cause nurses’ job dissatisfaction. The focus of this paper is to find nondominated solutions to an integrated nurse staf...

Network design problems arise in many different application areas such as air freight, highway traffic and communications systems. This thesis concerns the development, analysis and testing of new techniques for solving network design problems. We study the application of Benders decomposition to solve mixed integer programming formulations of the network design problem. A new methodology for a...

Large scale dispatching problems are technically characterized as classical NP-hard problems which means that they cannot be solved optimally with existing methods in a polynomial time. Benders decomposition is recommended for solving large scale Mixed Integer Programming (MIP). In this paper we use the Bender Decomposition technique for reformulating the Ready Mixed Concrete Dispatching Proble...

The design of telecommunication network with capacity constraints of links, routers and ports of routers is considered in this paper. Specially, we limit each demand flow traversed through a pre-specified maximal number of links (called hops) under node failure scenarios in IP layer network. Such a design must be the most cost-effective and ensure that feasible flows continue to exist even when...
