This paper deals with the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) with Draft Limits (TSPDL), which is a variant of the well-known TSP in the context of maritime transportation. In this recently proposed problem, draft limits are imposed due to restrictions on the port infrastructures. Exact algorithms...

We consider a multi-item lot-sizing problem in which there are demands, and unit production and storage costs. In addition production of any mix of items is measured in batches of fixed size, and there is a fixed set-up cost per batch in each period. Suppose that the unit production costs are...

Much progress has been made in recent years in solving certain classes of production planning problems using mixed integer programming. One of the major challenges is how to make this expertise available and easy to use to the non-specialist and to the practitioners. Here we describe a modeling...
