摘要: This paper formulates an integer program to design a surveillance system for port and waterway security. The model represents relevant practical considerations prescribes the types of sensors, number each type, location sensor meet requirements while minimizing total cost. A Branch-and-Price decomposition approach is formulated solve problem effective implementation techniques are identified. Data representing Houston Ship Channel used as test bed benchmark relative commercial solver, analyze influence parameters on run time, explore sensitivity cost parameters.
