Exploiting sparsity in pricing routines for the capacitated arc routing problem [PDF]
The capacitated arc routing problem (CARP) is a well-known and fundamental vehicle routing problem. A promising exact solution approach to the CARP is to model it as a set covering problem and solve it via branch-cut-and-price.

Solving an airport ground service task assignment problem with an exact algorithm.
In this paper, an airport ground service task assignment problem is studied. A task represents a service, which must be performed by one or multiple ground crew of a shift with required qualification/proficiency within a prescribed time period. For every

The rank pricing problem: Models and branch-and-cut algorithms [PDF]
One of the main concerns in management and economic planning is to sell the right product to the right customer for the right price. Companies in retail and manufacturing employ pricing strategies to maximize their revenues. The Rank Pricing Problem considers a unit-demand model with unlimited supply and uniform budgets in which customers have a rank ...

A branch-and-price algorithm for the windy rural postman problem [PDF]
Summary: We propose an exact solution method for the windy rural postman problem (WRPP). The motivation to study this problem comes from some real-life applications, such as garbage collecting in a predefined sector with hills, where the traversing or the servicing speed can change following the direction. We present a Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition and a
