Derived from	20801957 OPERATIONAL RESEARCH II in Computer science and engineering L-8 N0 NICOSIA GAIA (syllabus) Decision making process. Introduction to Integer Linear Programming (ILP): relation between ILP and LP, equivalent formulations, relaxations, totally unimodular matrices, standard techniques for ILP modelling. Typical ILP formulations: plant location, investment problem, sequencing problems, network optimization, transportation problems, set covering, set partitioning, set packing, crew scheduling. Exact algorithms: Branch and Bound, Cutting Planes, dynamic programming. Exact algorithms for binary and integer knapsack problems. Optimization on graphs: matching, vertex cover, max flow, independent set, Eulerian graphs and bipartite graphs. Use of an ILP commercial solver. (reference books) [1] M.
