In this way, we provide the reader with the background, elements and strategies to tackle a wide range of different combinatorial optimization problems. The exact and heuristic techniques outlined in these pages can be put to use in any number of combinatorial optimization problems. While the authors employ the LOP and the MDP to illustrate cutting-edge optimization technologies, the book is also a tutorial on how to design effective and successful implementations of exact and heuristic procedures alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis monograph provides the basic principles and fundamental ideas that will enable students and practitioners to create valuable applications based on both exact and heuristic technologies.

Important applications in business, engineering or economics cannot be tackled by the techniques that have formed the predominant focus of academic research throughout the past three decades. Exact and heuristic approaches are dramatically changing our ability to solve problems of practical significance and are extending the frontier of problems that can be handled effectively. This monograph details state-of-the-art optimization methods, both exact and heuristic, for the LOP. The authors employ the LOP to illustrate contemporary optimization technologies as well as how to design successful implementations of exact and heuristic procedures. Therefore, they do not limit the scope of this book to the LOP, but on the contrary, provide the reader with the background and practical strategies in optimization to tackle different combinatorial problems.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52677182357777,"sku":"NLS9783642266560","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783642266560.jpg?v=1790206884"},{"product_id":"exact-and-heuristic-methods-in-combinatorial-optimization-book-gerhard-reinelt-9783662648797","title":"Exact and Heuristic Methods in Combinatorial Optimization","description":"In the last decades, algorithmic advances as well as hardware and software improvements have provided an excellent environment to create and develop solving methods to hard optimization problems.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52686962524433,"sku":"NLS9783662648797","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783662648797.jpg?v=1762329315"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-gerhard-reinelt.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
