This example departs somewhat from the emphasis of previous ones. Typically, linear programming models are large, have considerable structure, and are solved with some regularity. Some form of ...

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 ...

There is a class of assignment problems where the cost function depends on the assignment of pairs of variables. A method of finding the optimum solution by a systematic exploration of a limited part ...
