THE USE OF ABSTRACTIONS IN MODEL MANAGEMENT.
… intelligence (AI) embodied in an equivalent of a programming language data abstraction structure. As a result, models represented by knowledge abstractions are not only subject to the powerful problem reduction and inference techniques available in the AI domain but are also in a form conducive to …

Applying tree knapsack approaches to general network design : a case study
… problems of a topological nature is the use of linear programming models. An important extension of these models is that of integer programming models that deal with problems where some, or all, of the variables are required to assume integer variables. A significant application in this class of …
