An example of the quadratic assignment problem (QAP) is the facility location problem, in which n facilities are assigned, at minimum cost, to n sites. Between each pair of facilities, there is a ...

can be solved by solving an equivalent linear complementarity problem when H is positive semidefinite. The approach is outlined in the discussion of the LCP subroutine in Chapter 17, "Language ...

Abstract: Traditional centralized scheduling methods are difficult to meet the complexity and real-time requirements of distributed energy systems, resulting in low efficiency of energy scheduling, ...

This paper describes a branch and bound algorithm for the global minimization of a quadratic objective function subject to quadratic constraints over a bounded interval. No assumptions are made ...

The quadratic.java program asks the user for the coefficients of the quadratic equation, passes them to the method that solves the equation, and displays the result. We do not deal with exception ...

We consider the optimal scheduling of hydropower plants in a hydrothermal interconnected system. This problem, of outmost importance for large-scale power systems with a high proportion of hydraulic ...
