Overview
This book provides a postgraduate audience the keys they need to understand and further develop a set of tools for the efficient computation of lower bounds and valid inequalities in integer programs and combinatorial optimization problems. After discussing the classical approaches described in the literature, the book addresses how to extend these tools to other non-standard formulations that may be applied to a broad set of applications. Examples are provided to illustrate the underlying concepts and to pave the way for future contributions.The book, Dual-Feasible Functions for Integer Programming and Combinatorial Optimization: Basics, Extensions and Applications (EURO Advanced Tutorials on Operational Research) [Bulk, Wholesale, Quantity] ISBN#9783319276021 in Hardcover by Cláudio Alves, Francois Clautiaux, José Valério de Carvalho, Jürgen Rietz may be ordered in bulk quantities.
