We propose a new mixed integer programming formulation and solution algorithm for a multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problem with availability constraints (calendars) and the objective to minimize the resource availability cost. Our model exploits the problem structure and has...

We consider the design of line plans in public transport at a minimal total cost. Both, linear and nonlinear integer programming are adequate and intuitive modeling approaches for this problem. We present a heuristic variable fixing procedure which builds on problem knowledge from both...
