Abstract:
The topic of this thesis is the implementation of rapid branching to find an integer solution for the train timetabling problem. The techniques that rapid branching are based on are presented. The important aspect of rapid branching are discussed and then the algorithm is applied to some artificial problems. It is shown that rapid branching can be both faster and slower than a standard integer solver depending on the problem instance. For the most realistic set of the examined instances, rapid branching turned out to be faster than the standard integer solver and produce satisficingly high qua

This thesis is about solving the manpower planning problem concerning stangand transitioning of pilots. The objective of the planning is to have enoughpilots to satisfy the demand while minimizing the cost. The main decisions totake are how many pilots to hire, which pilots to train and which courses toschedule. The planning problems that arise are both large and dicult whichmakes it important to use ecient solution methods. Seniority rules betweenpairs of pilots are the most complicating factor.A major part in the solution process is the solving of mixed integer programs.The emphasis in the t

Abstract:
Many real life problems can be formulated as constraint satisfaction problems <i>(CSPs)</i>. Backtracking search algorithms are usually employed to solve <i>CSPs</i> and in backtracking search the choice of branching strategies can be critical since they specify how a search algorithm can instantiate a variable and how a problem can be reduced into subproblems; that is, they define a search tree. In spite of the apparent importance of the branching strategy, there have been only a few empirical studies about different branching strategies and they all have been tested exclusively for nume

Afin de résoudre ces problèmes, particulièrement difficiles, de manière exacte et efficace, les algorithmes sont le plus souvent spécifiques au problème traité. Dans cette thèse, nous revenons sur l’approche dite de branch-and-bound et nous en proposons une extension pour obtenir un branch-and-cut, dans un contexte bi-objectif.

Abstract:
One of the main characteristics of our world is uncertainty. Making plans for the future is difficult, as we do not know exactly what the future holds. Companies must be flexible, ready to cope with the unpredictable demands that are placed on them. As a result, plans are often either short term, or tend to change soon after they are made. Another feature of the modern world is its pace. Decisions must be made quickly, or events may make them out of date before they can be implemented. In this thesis, we look at decision making problems in the presence of uncertainty about how the problem may

Finding the maximum size of a matching in an undirected graph and finding the maximum size of branching in a directed graph can be formulated as matrix rank problems. The Tutte matrix, introduced by Tutte as a representation of an undirected graph, has rank equal to the maximum number of vertices covered by a matching in the associated graph. The branching matrix, a representation of a directed graph, has rank equal to the maximum number of vertices covered by a branching in the associated graph.

Such representations are constructed via the Stone-von Neumann theorem. We have three interrelated results. We first compute the K-types of these representations. We then give a complete set of reducibility points for the unramified principal series representations. Among these are the unitary unramified principal series representations, for which we further investigate the distribution of the K-types among its irreducible components. In Part II, we

Combinatorial objects can be represented by strings, such as 21534 for the permutation (1 2) (3 5 4), or 110100 for the binary tree corresponding to the balanced parentheses (()()). Given a string s = s1 s2 sn, the right-shift operation shift(s, i, j) replaces the substring si si+1..sj by si+1..sj si. In other words, si is right-shifted into position j by applying the permutation (j j−1 .. i) to the indices of s. Right-shifts include prefix-shifts (i = 1) and adjacent-transpositions (j = i+1).
