This example departs somewhat from the emphasis of previous ones. Typically, linear programming models are large, have considerable structure, and are solved with some regularity. Some form of ...

A variety of well-known facility location and location-allocation models are shown to be equivalent to, and therefore solvable as, generalized assignment problems (GAP's). (The GAP is a 0-1 ...

This paper defines the components and characteristics of an important class of models called weighted assignment models and identifies these elements in a number of existing and potential applications ...

Airport gate assignment optimisation is a multifaceted challenge central to modern airport operations. This problem involves the systematic allocation of arriving and departing flights to a limited ...
