Example 3.12: An Assignment Problem. This example departs somewhat from the emphasis of previous ones. Typically, linear programming models are large, have considerable structure, and are solved with ...

For this assignment, from a set of 14 questions, the group was required to select at least four and develop their responses. Our group chose the following questions: Question 2: Implement the ...

Thus, the problem reduces to optimally assign vessels to berths.We call it the Berth Assignment Problem (BASP). (BASP) is an NP-Complete problem. We formulate it as a non standard Quadratic Assignment ...

The problem set will guide you towards posing and solving some interesting problems such as a financial portfolio problem and the optimal transportation problem as linear programs. Students can expect ...

Abstract: The assignment problem constitutes one of the fundamental problems in the context of linear programming. Besides its theoretical significance, its frequent appearance in the areas of ...
