The extreme point mathematical programming problem
This dissertation deals with a class of nonconvex mathematical programs called Extreme Point Mathematical Programs (EPMP). These problems are generalizations of certain Integer Programming problems and also find their application in other nonconvex programs like the Concave Minimization problem. …

MATHEMATICAL PROGRAMMING ALGORITHMS FOR NETWORK OPTIMIZATION PROBLEMS
In the thesis we consider combinatorial optimization problems that are defined by means of networks. These problems arise when we need to take effective decisions to build or manage network structures, both satisfying the design constraints and minimizing the costs. In the thesis we focus our …

Mathematical programming approach to cell formation problems in flexible manufacturing systems.
… to part families is formulated as 0-1 integer programming models (Model 1 and Model 2). Two approaches to the machine-part grouping problem are presented. The first approach involves the machine group formation problem (Model 3) first and then considers the problem of allocating parts to …

Mathematical Programming and Heuristic Approaches for Three Novel Vehicle Routing Problems
… obeying all operations requirements. We propose mathematical formulations and develop several solution approaches for the HSCPP. These solution approaches are based on integer programming and column generation. We then conduct a detailed computational study to compare these approaches using real …
