Approximation in stochastic integer programming [PDF]
Approximation algorithms are the prevalent solution methods in the field of stochastic programming. Problems in this field are very hard to solve. Indeed, most of the research in this field has concentrated on designing solution methods that approximate ...

Integrated chance constraints: reduced forms and an algorithm [PDF]
We consider integrated chance constraints (ICC), which provide quantitative alternatives for traditional chance constraints.We derive explicit polyhedral descriptions for the convex feasible sets induced by ICCs, for the case that the underlying ...

An ALM Model for Pension Funds using Integrated Chance Constraints [PDF]
We discuss integrated chance constraints in their role of short-term risk constraints in a strategic ALM model for Dutch pension funds. The problem is set up as a multistage recourse model, with special attention for modeling the guidelines proposed by ...

Modification of Recourse Data for Mixed-Integer Recourse Models [PDF]
We consider modification of the recourse data, consisting of the second-stage parameters and the underlying distribution, as an approximation technique for solving two-stage recourse problems. This approach is applied to several specific classes of mixed-

Optimizing electricity distribution using two-stage integer recourse models [PDF]
We consider two planning problems faced by an electricity distributor. Electricity can be ob-tained both from power plants and small generators such as hospitals and greenhouses, whereas the future demand for electricity is uncertain.

Reformulation and decomposition of integer programs [PDF]
In this survey we examine ways to reformulate integer and mixed integer programs. Typically, but not exclusively, one reformulates so as to obtain stronger linear programming relaxations, and hence better bounds for use in a branch-and-bound based ...

Pragmatic distributionally robust optimization for simple integer recourse models
Inspired by its success for their continuous counterparts, the standard approach to deal with mixed-integer recourse (MIR) models under distributional uncertainty is to use distributionally robust optimization (DRO). We argue, however, that this modeling
