DC (Difference of Convex) programming and DCA (DC Algorithm)—an innovative approach in nonconvex programming framework …. The mixed integer nonlinear problem is first reformulated as a DC program and then DCA is developed to solve the resulting … problem. In order to globally solve the problem, we combine DCA with a Branch and Bound algorithm (BB-DCA). A convex minorant …

into the DC (Difference of Convex functions) programming framework and solved by DCA (DC Algorithm) as shown in the works … is to investigate more attractive DCA based algorithms for this problem. We consider a new optimization model and propose … two interesting DCA schemes. In the first scheme we have to solve a quadratic program at each iteration, while in the …

Afterward, DCA, an efficient local approach in non-convex programming framework, is investigated to solve the … resulting problem. For globally solving this problem, we investigate a combined DCA-Branch and Bound algorithm. DCA is applied …
