Formulations of mathematical programs often require that some of the decision variables take only integer values. Consider the formulation You can follow the same steps to identify binary variables.

Integer programming is a crucial branch of mathematical optimisation that focuses on problems where some or all decision variables are constrained to be integers. This field underpins many practical ...

This example illustrates a nonstandard use of PROC NETDRAW. The TREE option in PROC NETDRAW is used to draw a branch and bound tree such as one that you obtain in the solution of an integer ...

In this paper we discuss some branch and bound methods implemented in the UMPIRE mathematical programming system for solving practical integer programming problems and give details of computational ...
