Although the possibility to combine column generation and Lagrangian relaxation has been known for quite some time, it has only recently been exploited in algorithms. In this paper, we discuss ways of combining these techniques. We focus on solving the LP relaxation of the Dantzig-Wolfe master...

We describe an algorithmic approach to determine an efficient railway rolling stock circulation ona single line or on a set of interacting lines. Given the timetable and the passengers? seatdemand, we develop a branch-and-price algorithm that results in an allocation of rolling stockmaterial to...
