We propose a primal algorithm for the Set Partitioning Problem based on the Integral Simplex Using Decomposition of Zaghrouti et al. (2014). We present the a...

The maximally diverse grouping problem requires finding a partition of a given set of elements into a fixed number of mutually disjoint subsets (or groups) i...

In this paper we propose a general variable neighborhood search heuristic for solving the uncapacitated single allocation p-hub center problem (USApHCP). F...

The uncapacitated multiple allocation p-hub center problem (UMApHCP) consists of choosing p hub locations from a set of nodes with pairwise traffic deman...

Usually several neighborhood structures may be explored within a single local search algorithm. The simplest way is to define a single neighborhood as a unio...

In this paper we investigate the options of a network operator faced with the requirement of reducing its carbon footprint, expressed in terms of a global en...

In this paper we show that the Clique Partitioning Problem can be reformulated in an equivalent form as the Maximally Diverse Grouping Problem (MDGP). We th...

In the present paper, we are interested in bounding differences between graph invariants as well as in characterizing the corresponding extremal graphs. This...

This paper proposes an incentive mechansim for transmission expansion planning. The mechansim is a bilevel program. The upper level is a profit-maximizing tr...

This paper proposes models and algorithms for the pickup and delivery vehicle routing problem with time windows and multiple stacks. Each stack is rear-loade...

In this paper we show how to robustify the computation of equilibria in two integrated assessment models for climate change. Both models deal with the optima...

Studies of traffic dynamics rely either on macroscopic models considering the traffic as a fluid, or on microscopic models of drivers' behavior. The connec...

In this paper, we present a stochastic two-level optimization model whose upper-level problem depicts a wastewater treatment plant deciding on the size of co...

The expansion of the Panama Canal will be completed by 2015. The route via the Panama Canal will shorten voyages from North America to Japan by more than 7,5...

In this article, we characterize incentive equilibrium strategies and their credibility conditions for the classes of linear-state and linear-quadratic dynam...

In this paper we present a new rolling horizon approach for solving stochastic mixed complementarity problems (MCPs). Such a scheme allows for decision-depen...

This paper describes three recent tools for dealing with primal degeneracy in linear programming. The first one is the Improved Primal Simplex (IPS) algor...

The airline crew scheduling problem involves assigning a group of crew members to scheduled flights over a planning horizon (usually a month) while respectin...

Effective route planning for battery electric commercial vehicle (ECV) fleets has to take into account their limited autonomy and the possibility of visiting...

In this paper, we consider a class of non-cooperative N-player finite-horizon linear-quadratic dynamic games with linear constraints. We introduce a constr...
