This paper describes an integer programming formulation of the vehicle scheduling problem and illustrates how such a formulation can be extended to incorporate restrictions on work load, coverage and ...

The objective of the 3D-SCALO problem is to assign the given components to optimal mounting surfaces and position them at the best locations, while satisfying the requirements for (1) heat dissipation ...

We present a genetic algorithm for the multiple-choice integer program that finds an optimal solution with probability one (though it is typically used as a heuristic). General constraints are relaxed ...
