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...

this paper presented a mixed integer programming for integrated scheduling and process planning. the presented process plan included some orders with precedence relations similar to multiple traveling salesman problem (mtsp), which was categorized as an np-hard problem. these types of problems are also called advanced planning because of simultaneously determining the appropriate sequence and m...

The tactical planning process of an airline is typically decomposed into several stages among which fleeting, aircraft routing, and crew pairing form the core. In such a decomposed and sequential approach the output of fleeting forms the input to aircraft routing and crew pairing. In turn, the output to aircraft routing is part of the input to crew pairing. Due to the decomposition, the resulti...

The problem of planning for a robot that operates in environments containing large number objects, taking actions to move itself through the world as well change state is known task and motion (TAMP). TAMP problems contain elements discrete planning, discrete–continuous mathematical programming, continuous thus cannot be effectively addressed by any these fields directly. In this article, we de...
