The feasibility pump is a well-established primal heuristic for mixed integer programming (MIP) that alternates between solving a linear programming (LP) relaxation of the original problem and ...

An open-station assembly line that manufactures mixed models of sheet metal cabinets is considered in this research. The problem minimizes the total cost of the idle and utility times incurred in an ...

Mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) optimisation constitutes a critical methodology in tackling complex decision-making problems where both discrete choices and continuous variables are ...
