Syllabus: | This unit will consider problems arising in business and industry. The students will learn the necessary skills to model and solve such problems through mathematical modelling and operations research techniques with a focus on using variables. The topics covered include: Industrial Modelling: In this part of the unit, several binary and integer examples of mathematical models will be presented and analysed. Dual Simplex Algorithms: the Simplex and the Dual Simplex Algorithms used for linear programming problems will be revised and analysed from a different perspective. Their features will be thoroughly investigated. This part is crucial to the development of the second part of this unit, i.e., Integer Linear Programming. Integer Linear Programming: The Simplex Algorithm and the Dual Simplex Algorithm studied in the first part of the unit will be used as the building blocks of more complex algorithms to solve Linear Programming Problems where all or some of the variables are constrained to be integer. Two methods will be presented: the Gomory Cuts and the Branch-and-Bound Algorithms. Branch-and-Bound Algorithms: In this part of the subject, Branch-and-Bound algorithms will be addressed from a more general perspective, to the end of solving other Integer Linear Programming problems, including the Knapsack Problem 0-1 |
