  • Martin Rohde
Theoretische Arbeiten

Zusammenfassung

Es wird ein Algorithmus zur Lösung des bekannten Set-Partitioning-Problems mit Randbedingungen dargestellt. Der Algorithmus ist vom Typ der Impliziten Enumeration und benutzt Subgradientenoptimierung zur Kostentransformation. Eine Heuristik zur Zerlegung der Menge der Variablen in Blöcke sowie ein Fixierungs-Test basierend auf den Randbedingungen werden entwickelt. Abschließend sind einige Details der Computer-Implementation und numerische Testergebnisse aufgeführt.

Summary

An algorithm for solving the well-known Set-Partitioning-Problem with Side Constraints will be presented. The algorithm is of the Implicit Enumeration type and uses Subgradient Optimization for cost-transformation. A heuristic for partitioning the variables into blocks and a Fixing-Test based upon the Side Contraints are developed. Finally some details of Computer-Implementation and numerical test results are given.
