Formulate linear and integer programming problems for solving commonly encountered optimization problems. Understand how approximation algorithms compute solutions that are guaranteed to be within ...

A timetabling problem is formulated as a large integer linear programming problem in 0-1 variables. A solution method based on Lagrangean relaxation coupled with subgradient optimization is presented.

The specific equations are based on the details of the original problem. But while these details may differ, the basic makeup of ILP problems remains the same, giving researchers a single way to ...
