This paper presents a "branch and bound" algorithm for the following problem: given a project consisting of a set of activities partially ordered by a set of precedence restrictions, with each ...

This paper presents the results of experimentation on the development of an efficient branch-and-bound algorithm for the solution of zero-one linear mixed integer programming problems. An implicit ...

Global optimisation stands as a pivotal discipline in applied mathematics and engineering, providing robust methodologies for determining the absolute best solution among myriad local optima. Recent ...
