Computer programs to solve linear programming problems by the simplex method have existed since the early 1950s. They remain the central feature of today's mathematical programming systems. There has ...

This paper investigates the solution by integer programming of reliability optimization problems which are subject to linear and nonlinear separable restraints. In particular, the following problems ...

Mathematical modelling and optimisation in packing problems constitute a critical research area that combines advanced algorithms, rigorous analytical formulations, and practical applications. This ...
