An Unrelated Parallel Processing with Weighted jobs and Setup times scheduling prolem is studied. We consider a parallel processing in which a group of processors(machines) perform a single operation on jobs of a number of different job types. The processing time of each job depends on both the job and the machine, and each job has a weight. In addition each machine requires significant setup time between processing jobs of different job types. The performance measure is to minimize total weighted flow time in order to meet the job importance and to minimize in-process inventory. We present a 0-1 Mixed Integer Programming model as an optimizing algorithm. We also present a simple heuristic algorithm. Computational results for the optimal and the heuristic algorithm are reported and the results show that the simple heuristic is quite effective and efficient.

The purpose of this paper is to structure a new integrated model that can minimize the total cost for the transportation and inventory systems between m origin points, where origin i has a supply of a commodity, such as distribution centers or warehouses, and n destination points, where destination j requires the commodity. In this case, demands of the destination points are assumed random variables which have a known probability distribution. We will find optimal distribution centers which transport the commodity to the destination points and suggest optimal inventory policy to the selected distribution center which find the optimal pair $$ and safety stock level that minimize total cost with back-ordered case. This new model is formulated as a 0-1 nonlinear integer programming problem. To solve the problem, this paper proposes heuristic computational procedures and program and provides numerical examples.

In relational databases the number of disk accesses depends on the amount of data transferred from disk to main memory for processing the transactions. N-ary vertical partitioning of the relation can often result in a decrease in the number of disk accesses, since not all attributes in a tuple are required by each transactions. In this paper, a 0-1 integer programming model for solving n-ary vertical partitioning problem minimizing the number of disk accesses is formulated and a branch-and-bound method is used to solve it. A preprocessing procedure reducing the number of variables is presented. The algorithm is illustrated with numerical examples and is shown to be computationally efficient. Numerical experiments reveal that the proposed method is more effective in reducing access costs than the existing algorithms.

VLSI 공정 기술이 발달하면서 이웃한 전선 간의 간격이 점점 더 가까워 지고 있으며, 그에 따라 인접 전선 간의 혼신 문제가 심각해지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 3층 그리드 채널 배선에 적용 가능한 혼신을 최소화시키는 배선층 할당 방법을 제안한다. 이 방법은 선형 의사 불린 최적화 기법에 맞도록 고안되었으며, 적절한 변수 선택 휴리스틱과 상한값 추정 방법을 통하여 최적의 결과를 짧은 시간 안에 찾아낸다. 실험 결과를 통하여, 일반적인 0/1 정수 선형 프로그래밍 기법과 비교하여 성능과 수행시간 면에서 우수함을 보인다. Abstract Current deep-submicron VLSI technology appears to cause crosstalk problem severe since it requires adjacent wires to be placed closer and closer. In this paper, we deal with a horizontal layer assignment problem for three layer HVH channel routing to minimize coupling capacitance, a main source of crosstalk. It is formulated in a 0/1 integer linear programming problem which is then solved by a linear pseudo boolean optimization technique. Experiments show that accurate upper bound estimation technique effectively reduces crosstalk in a reasonable amount of running times.

As inter-wire spacing on a VLSI chip becomes smaller with the evolution of VLSI fabrication technology, coupling capacitance between adjacent wires is increasing rapidly over ground capacitance. Therefore, it becomes necessary to take into account the crosstalk caused mainly by coupling capacitance during the layout design of VLSI systems. This paper deals with layer assignment problem to minimize crosstalk in three layers gridded channel routing. The problem is formulated in 0/1 integer linear programming style. Upper bound for cost function is estimated for the fast termination. Experiment shows the effectiveness of our approach to minimize crosstalk.

A ship scheduling model is presented for the raw material transportation problem with yard storage constraints in a steel mill. The problem is formulated as 0, 1 mixed integer programming considering such constraints as loading port conditions, ship size and hold capacity, unloading conditions, and yard storage space. In addition, inventory related constraints including safety stock are taken into consideration to support the continuous operations of steel making process. The proposed model has been implemented and applied successfully to a real world problem, and its results show the improvement of performance compared to the traditional method. For example, the arrival dates of ships are determined satisfying the constraints. The total inventory level is minimized at the stock yard as a result. Also, the safety inventory level is always kept at the planning stage, and the standard deviation of total inventory level is reduced significantly. Further research is expected to develop efficient heuristics to have a better response time for even larger scale problems.

In this paper we address a design problem for hub-and-spoke networks and then consider a capacitated hub locations problem with direct shipment (CHLPwD). We determine the location of hubs, the allocation of nodes to hubs, and direct shipment paths in the network, with the objective of minimizing the total cost in the network. In this paper, CHLPwD is formulated as 0-1 integer programming. We develop an evolutionary algorithm here to solve the large sized CHLPwD. To do this, we present the representation and the genetic operators suitable for the problem and propose a heuristic method for the allocation of nodes to hubs. To enhance the search capability, problem-specific information is used in our evolutionary algorithm. The proposed algorithm is compared with the heuristic method in terms of solution quality and computation time. The experimental results show that our algorithm can provide better solutions than the heuristic.

In general, cellular manufacturing system can be constructed by the following two steps. The first step forms machine cells and part families, and the second step determines cell layout based on the result of first step. Cell layout has to be considered when cell is formed becauese the result of cell formation affects it. This paper presents a cell formation algorithm and proposes an integrated mathematical model for cell formation and cell layout. The cell formation algorithm minimizes the number of exceptional element in cellular manufacturing system. New concept for similarity and incapability is introduced, based on machine-operation incidence matrix and part-operation incidence matrix. One is similarity between the machines, the other is similarity between preliminary machine cells and machines. The incapability identifies relations between machine cells and parts. In this procedure, only parts without an exceptional element are assigned to machine cell. Bottleneck parts are considered with cell layout design in an integrated mathematical model. The integrated mathematical model determines cell layout and assigns bottleneck parts to minimize the number of exceptional element and intercell moving distance, based on linearixed 0-1 integer programming. The proposed algorithm is illustrated by using numerical examples.

This paper considers the arrival, airport and departure capacity as a whole, through which, the network effect between airports is fully emphasized, the flight action is coordinated, and the flight demand pattern is reasonably assigned. The optimization problem of flight queues in multi-airport is studied in detail; the mathematical model of multi-airport opening non-real time flow management in terminal area is established, and related problems such as the parameters, the simplification and the solving of the model are discussed in detail to some extent. Appropriate decision making variables are taken to make the multi-airport network system linear 0-1 integer programming model, thus, the solving of the model is available and the central flow management is realized. The heuristic implicit enumeration presented in this paper can effectively solve this kind of problems. Through the simulation of some airports network system, we not only validate the algorithm presented in this paper, but also give a deep analysis of the results, which would produce reference for later practicable use. The simulation proves that this algorithm offers a good way to settle the problem of multi-airport flight queue optimization in air traffic management automation system in terminal area.

The clustering characteristics for a number of classes, and defining the inheritance relations between the classes is a difficult and complex problem in an early stage of object oriented software development. We discuss a traditional iterative approach for the reuse of the existing classes in a library and an integrated approach to creating a number of new classes presented in this study. This paper formulates a character-istic clustering problem for zero-one integer programming and presents a network solution method with illustrative examples and the basic rules to define the inheritance relations between the classes. The network solution method for a characteristic clustering problem is based on a distance parameter between every pair of objects with characteristics. We apply the approach to a real problem taken from industry.
