6. Polyhedral and complexity studies in integer optimization, with applications to maintenance planning and location–routing problems
Sammanfattning : This thesis develops integer linear programming models for and studies the complexity of problems in the areas of maintenance optimization and location–routing. We study how well the polyhedra defined by the linear programming relaxation of themodels approximate the convex hull of the integer feasible solutions. LÄS MER
7. Integration of Constraint Programming and Integer Programming for Combinatorial Optimization
Sammanfattning : The last several years have seen an increasing interest in combining the models and methods of optimization with those of constraint programming. Integration of the two was initially impeded by their different cultural origins, one having developed largely in the operations research community and the other in the computer science and artificial intelligence communities.

8. Function Variables for Constraint Programming
Sammanfattning : Quite often modelers with constraint programming (CP) use the same modelling patterns for different problems, possibly from different domains. This results in recurring idioms in constraint programs. Our approach can be seen as a three-step approach. First, we identify some of these recurring patterns in constraint programs. LÄS MER
9. Radiation Therapy Patient Scheduling: An Operations Research Approach
Sammanfattning : The manual scheduling of patients for radiation therapy is difficult and labor-intensive. With the increase in cancer patient numbers, efficient resource planning is an important tool to achieve short waiting times and equal right to care. This thesis studies an operations research approach to the radiation therapy scheduling problem. LÄS MER
10. Contributions within two topics in integer programming : nurse scheduling and column generation
Sammanfattning : Integer programming can be used to provide solutions to complex decision and planning problems occurring in a wide variety of situations. The application of integer programming to solve real world problems requires a modelling phase in which the problem at hand is translated into a mathematical description of the problem, and a solution phase that aims at developing methods for producing solutions to the mathematical formulation of the problem.
