We study the multiple objective discrete optimization (MODO) problem and propose two-stage optimization problems as subproblems to be solved to obtain efficient solutions. The mathematical structure ...

A zero-one integer mathematical programming formulation is proposed to solve the optimal product line selection problem. Based on individual consumer measurements from conjoint analysis, the ...

Real-life optimization problems are often solved using techniques that borrow concepts from quantum mechanics. In a new study, scientists from Japan apply and compare the performance of such a ...
