Optimization of multiclass queueing networks with changeover times via the achievable region method: Part II, the multi-station case

Bertsimas, Dimitris; Niño-Mora, José - Department of Economics and Business, Universitat … - 1996

We address the problem of scheduling a multi-station multiclass queueing network (MQNET) with server changeover times to minimize steady-state mean job holding costs. We present new lower bounds on the best achievable cost that emerge as the values of mathematical programming problems (linear,...

Superlinear convergence of a symmetric primal-dual path following algorithm for semidefinite programming

Luo, Z-Q.; Sturm, J.F.; Zhang, S. - Erasmus University Rotterdam, Econometric Institute - 1996

This paper establishes the superlinear convergence of a symmetric primal-dual path following algorithm for semidefinite … programming under the assumptions that the semidefinite program has a strictly complementary primal-dual optimal solution and that … superlinearly with order [TeX: $\frac{2}{1+2^{-2r}}$]. The proof relies on a careful analysis of the central path for semidefinite …

Duality and Self-Duality for Conic Convex Programming

Luo, Z-Q.; Sturm, J.F.; Zhang, S. - Erasmus University Rotterdam, Econometric Institute - 1996

This paper considers the problem of minimizing a linear function over the intersection of an affine space with a closed convex cone. In the first half of the paper, we give a detailed study of duality properties of this problem and present examples to illustrate these properties. In particular,...

On the long step path--following method for semidefinite programming

Sturm, J.F.; Zhang, S. - Erasmus University Rotterdam, Econometric Institute - 1996

algorithms for linear programming can be nicely generalized to semidefinite programming. However, the analysis of long step path …-following algorithms for semidefinite programming appeared to be less straightforward. For such an algorithm, Monteiro obtained an [TeX: O …
