摘要: The branch-and-bound procedure for solving mixed integer programming (MIP) problems using linear programming relaxations has been used with great success for decades. Over the years, a variety of researchers have studied ways of making the basic algorithm more effective. Breakthroughs in the fields of computer hardware, computer software, and mathematics have led to increasing success at solving larger and larger MIP instances. The goal of this article is to survey many of the results regarding branch-and-bound search …
